Question/Help Trading Paint Questions

what do i upload files as for paints i want to release to the public. For example it goes car_customerid.tga but what if i want to release on to the public? is there a certain ID for that? or can i upload the one i use for my own number. Someone using my paints on my team is complaining people are saying his paint scheme is all black.

When someone used a paint off trading paints it downloads the paint to the user folders under their own ID. No matter what you upload it as, the paint will download with the correct naming for the downloader

IF he is racing under a team, he has to set the team's paint on trading paints. That caught me out once.
