Saving and using textures in PSP

I apologise if this is a silly question, but I am admittedly a noob, and I promise I have extensively checked out the memories and couldn't find the answer.

I have a large number of images that are supposed to be textures, but when I import them they don't keep the original color, they just take on whatever color or gradient I have selected in the program. Do they need to be saved as patterns instead of textures in PSP in order for them to keep the original coloring? I feel like I'm missing something really obvious here...

EDIT: Solved, thank you. Damn do I feel stupid, lol
