what are you talking about? that link takes you directly there.

now, if for some reason your browser cant handle anchors, then just go to our "READ FIRST BEFORE POSTING" thread, which you obviously did not do.
then as you read that, you will be directed to a site which holds the beginners FAQ, frequently asked questions. there, or if you follow the previous link posted by strazer, you can find this blurb:

8. How on Earth do I create my own characters!?
First, you must save each frame in the animation in any painting program as a .BMP or .PCX file. Then, import them one-by-one into the Sprite Editor in AGS. In the Views section of AGS, create a new view (or use the existing one to replace the main character's walking animation) and choose the images for each direction there. Next, in the Characters pane, create a character (or use the first one, if you're replacing low-res Roger as your main character) and select the corresponding views. If you want talking views (animations run when the player is talking), then read the question below. Finally, make sure that "This is the player character" is checked off. And ensure that the new/altered character starts in the room you want him/her to (i.e. 0 for INTRO.CRM and 1 for ROOM1.CRM, etc.).

Well, usually when you read things, you have to give at least a little bit of attention to it. At least next time you'll know to read the forum rules, boy!
