You can use my PBA viewer to open Tribes bitmaps and save them as Windows bitmaps. Not the other way around though :(

Basically you'll need three programs: Volumer, wich exports elements of .vol files (can also convert PBMP to BMP), Makeskin, wich converts BMPs to PBMPs and a modified version of vt.exe wich can make a .vol file with your files. There are many places you can download these from, Google should do the rest of the trick; but you might want to check out www.tribalwar.com/junk first.

Why do you need a modified vt.exe when the existing vt.exe makes vol files perfectly well?
