Unable to upload any file like .png and.psd files

So I have a layered PSD file but Character Animator won't upload the file, saying it's not supported in Starter Mode. Is this because Adobe wants me to pay for Pro? 

Converting a flat image to PSD will not create layers which are necessary for Character Animator characters.

Thanks for your reply! So when I upload a character in photoshop I can't give it layers right? That's why they can't be used in animator to make them move, only as background? Thanks 

Also, to answer your other question, Character Animator puppets need to be created in layers, which is why they need to be created in Photoshop or Illustrator. You can also import raw images like png or jpg to use as props, backgrounds, etc. 

Sorry, CH is Adobe's abreviation for Character Animator. I sometimes forget myself. What I mean is that if someone creates a puppet in Character Animator Pro and exports that puppet (with the .puppet extention) then it can be imported into the Starter version of Character Animator.

Thank you for your answer! So it is not possible to import your own characters you have created elsewhere like in Paint?

What does CH session mean? Thanks in advance

You will not be able to import raw images or rig a puppet in Starter mode. You can import dialog or puppets (from other CH sessions) only.
