What program are you using and what file format are you saving them as?

For Dawn of War to recognise the badges they have to be 32-bit uncompressed TGA files (which usually come out at about 16KB and 24KB each). If you do that and they're still not showing up then make sure they are in the right place and check the warning.logs file (within the DoW directory) to see if it says anything about the files. I've seen some warnings popup in the log when the files are the wrong dimensions, so it might do it for other 'errors' as well.

Also, this is a Dawn of War issue, kind of skinning related (well, DoW graphics) so I'm moving it to the DoW Skinning forum.
Out now: Dawn of War Texture/Skin Downloads
At v0.1: WarFoundry (open source, cross-platform, multi-system army creation application)
