Help needed with texture packs
How do I use a texture that I can only download as a PNG image?
I am asking this because I have quite a few texture packs that can only be downloaded as images (Zombie, Large tropical fish, Squid, etc.) and I really want to actually use.

The png for the texture[s] needs to be in a proper folder structure for the game to be able to find it.
For java, the resource pack [newer name for a texture pack as it may include resources other than textures] goes in the "resourcepacks" folder
q.v. https://minecraft.wiki/w/Tutorial:Loading_a_resource_pack for details
The resouce pack itself is comprised of a series of folders and a "pack.mcmeta" file [a text formated file that tells minecraft the version, etc,]
q.v. ]minecraft.wiki/w/Resource_pack#Directory_structure
As a shortcut, you may be able to find a texture pack for the version you're playing and crib all or most of the folder structure from that source.

Thanks for the help! but the pack for the zombie didn't work :( do you know why this could be?
What version are you playing? [numeric version of java I'm assuming vanilla (or near to it) as some mods/datapacks can change things in ways a standard texture won't work.]
Which zompbie pack did you use as a base? (Link would be preferrable to a description.)
[Problems with either the mcmeta file or the files names/structure are most likely]
What zombie png file are you using? (link or upload)

Playing on the latest snapshot of vanilla (26.3-snapshot-4), using another texture pack as a base and renamed the stuff to "zombie" so it would work (Specifically the allay) and using the zombie from this link here: www.planetminecraft.com/mob-skin/pursuer-zombie-dod/
Given the source, I'd bet the png was fine.
What do you mean by "(Specifically the allay)"?
I don't bother wit snapshots these days, so don't knbow if the pack layout/mcmeta gave changed.
From where did you get the pack template? (the mcmeta and the folder structure)
