you will need sysop powers to complete the following
(if you don't have sysop access, you'll have to get a sysop to help you out)

first, rename your files to:

Quote:

led.bmp
disp.bmp
icondoor.bmp

download lvztoolkit.zip
extract its contents somewhere

open up a text editor (like TextPad or notepad)
type in the following:

Quote:

outfile=nameOfYourChoice.lvz

file=led.bmp
file=disp.bmp
file=icondoor.bmp

save this file as nameOfYourChoice.ini

make sure your three .bmp's and your new .ini file are in the same directory

run BuildLevel.exe (from lvztoolkit.zip)
when the browse for file box pops up, find and select your new .ini file

a .lvz file named what you specified with outfile= should now be created in the same directory as the .ini file and .bmp's

place this .lvz file into your main Continuum directory (eg. C:\Program Files\Continuum)

go in-game
type *getfile server.cfg (or whichever .cfg file for whichever arena you'd like to have the graphics used in)
the .cfg will download to your main Continuum directory

open server.cfg in a text editor
find and alter (or add completely):

misc:levelfiles=nameOfYourChoice.lvz

save your changes

in-game, reupload by typing *putfile server.cfg

now enter or re-enter the arena and you should download and see the new images

unsure if this'll work, but try

*putfile all the files first, then

?set misc:levelfiles=otherlevelfiles,led.bm2, disp.bm2, icondoor.bm2

I wouldn't do what paine said if the files are large in size (more 50k altogether). I don't think subgame2 compresses the Misc:LevelFiles.
