It's actually very easy to make these things yourself.
For the Face:
1. Open up the picture you showed in this thread.
2. If you have default RTP Facesets, go into those and check the attributes.
3. Now, put the part of the picture you want at the top left side. For example, you probably want the face in the faceset, so just grab it and drag it to the top left side. Move the clothes he's wearing as well. Now, change the attributes to match the ones in the other facesets.
4. Now, to be sure it's done right, grab a face from the other facesets (just one not the entire thing), and put it over the new faceset. Is it the same size? If not, delete those extra pixels until the faces match.
5. Done!
Charset:
At this site's home page, there's a wonderful online charset generator. Click on it, and start by clicking the skin you want, and add the other stuff you need until it's done, save it into your game's charset folder, and that should be done as well.

ok thanx for the advice. I've made face, charset and battlecharset. I've got a problem with the battlecharset. When I try to import the custom battlers I get this error:

unsupported png

I've already put a 256 indexed colour  and I added a transperency layer to the image but I still says unsupported PNG. Please can some help me.

here's charset and my battlechara:

I'm not exactly sure if this will help, but:
1. You need a program called "Ultimate Paint". Download and Install it if you don't have it.
2. Put your file you want  in "Ultimate Paint". Now, it should open, as well as the charsets you put in.
3. Go to File->Save As...
4. In the "Save as Type:" option, choose Portable Network Graphics (PNG).
In the bottom left corner, labeled "Colors", click on the 256 color part.
5. Now, save it in your battlecharsets folder.
6. If you are asked if you want to replace the old file, click "Yes". (Because you want to update the new one and not the old one).
7. Try Importing it now, should work.

If it doesn't work, sorry, I don't really know what to do.

Or you could get IrfanView.
Open the pic with irfanview
go to image > decrease colour depth > choose 256
save the picture as a PNG.

If you still have a problem with it, I could fix it for you.
