It's purpose is to help you line up all of the parts of the tank, it will save you a TON of time. Everything is completly aligned, I spent a long time making this absolutley perfect. I also put it through a threshold to remove all the fuzzy edges and the blurry stuff in the black area. It should make skinning a lot easier for you.
So, I hope this is of some use to you

The template is a .bmp file to preserve color! You will need to convert your final product into a .jpg if you want it to work!!
