Andres,

There's no need to texture an .IM file. These are the mesh files that are "painted" using textures.

What you can do though, is simply use a photo-editing program such as Gimp, PaintShop Pro, or Photoshop, and repaint the texture files to suit your needs.

Just remember to use un-compressed .TGA files when you save your texture files, and to ensure they are named properly in the .texture.txt file.

Please post more questions on this, there are plenty of folks here that can help you become another retexturing expert.
