Re: delete
If your using Windows, then you can probably delete the costume from here:
Just copy and paste it into the bar at the top of My Computer 
.
C:\Program Files\Scratch\Media\Costumes
If that doesn't work, you should be able to find the folder under
My computer > System > Program Files > Scratch > Media
Which is the same place.
As for any other operating system, it's probably different so I don't know.

There is a "X" button on the costume.

It's not on a sprite. It's in her folder where she can open sprites at will.

two things:
First of all, I am a boy.
Second of all, the costume doesn't show up in the costumes folder under media.

Re: delete
Did you put it into one of the sub-folders inside "Costumes" by mistake? Or maybe you put it in another file... My Documents/Pictures, maybe? You could try checking those folders, then deleting it if it turns up - by selecting and clicking "delete", or by dragging it to the Recycle Bin...
Sounds obvious, but are you sure you didn't click "cancel" when exporting instead of "OK"?
Or do you get "Could not write file: Is the folder read-only?" If so, try exporting to a different folder - I often find that this fixes it

Nope. When I click the import sprite button it shows, but I can't find it in windows explorer.

No problem! Glad to see you're having success. Out of curiousity, did you manage to figure out where it was?
No, just found it in the search. I think it said it was in a folder I already checked.
