i was editing it on my pc though so it shouldnt matter. I was turning it off before putting it in my windows folder though. Anwho I figured it out...sorta. I just saved the current image and opened it in photoshop and added my new image on top. Then replaced the manila image with my new one and its working. Kinda half-@$$ but it works.
New clock, new icons, working weather tab with new font and a new start orb.
