Costumes not showing up?????

Help me somebody I just downloaded the new version of Scratch a month ago and it is great and everything worked until now I was making a halo game after I did what I always did for making sprites I cropped off a spritesheet then save as and undo and go back but I did that normally and now although the sprites show up in my documents and they are about 60 x 100 so they are'nt miniscule and they age non-animated Gif's, and when I opened up scratch and said to inport costume they weren't there so I closed Scratch and started it again and it didn't work again.  The names and places were there they were just blank somebody help me it doesn't work HELP!!!!!!!

Hi, eyeblz_rkz.

Make sure that the GIF files you created are actually stored in GIF format (not, for example, Photoshop) and that the file names end in ".gif". (If the file name does not end in .gif, .png, .jpg, or .bmp, Scratch will not know that it is an image.)

You can drag an image file onto Scratch. That will cause the image to be added as a costume of the currently selected sprite. But the file must end in ".gif" (or one of the other image file extensions) for this to work.

Does that help?
