I tried to used you painted biomes mod (with ScottoMotto and lekoopa’s tutorial), it didn’t work because I don’t know how to use it and didn’t have required the files which mentioned in those in the tutorial.
Btw, Is your mod requires Java programming? And can you try these images to use on the please

Have you read through the CurseForge page of the mod? It should cover all the things you need to do to get the basic template working.
Also your template image is basically "broken", it does not contain uniform colors, but instead countless different shades of each color. It looks like maybe you saved it as JPEG first, and then converted that to PNG? Saving as JPEG first would make it unusable due to the lossy compression. You need to directly save it as PNG.
If you zoom in on even the PNG version you posted, it looks like this atm:
These were originally drawn and edited on autodesk sketchbook (iPad) and used the colours from the Amidst, I checked these images on the Google drive that they are already PNGs, and what’s the reason it was resulted as broken?
I looked the quick guide again on your page, a part is said “ Start the game to get a default configuration file generated”, does it mean to make a default world, and how to get into its files?
Well obviously I don't know how you have made and handled the images, all I can see is that one of them seemed to even be a JPEG image whereas the other one is a PNG. And both of them have a lot of different colors within what are supposed to be a patch of a single biome/color. And all of the edges of the biomes use color blending, resulting in lots of different colors. That's not going to work properly with the mod, because you configure an exact color code for a specific biome. So there should be no blending and no color distortions of any kind, or you will end up with lots of areas that don't actually map to the biome you wanted. So you need to use a sharp pencil tool, color fills and no blending/anti-aliasing or other effects that may blend or change the colors.
"Start the game to get the config" means that you just need to launch the game with the mod installed, and then it will generate the config file inside the config directory, just like all other MC mods usually work. So the config file will be inside your Minecraft directory, at .minecraft/config/paintedbiomes/paintedbiomes.cfg.
After I have followed your quick guide and your explanation, I have added my png image to the paintedbiomes.cfg file and downloaded the mod, but uhh quick question, is it possible to be created via World type settings in More world options? (I was busy in 2022 to 2023 Mid-May so I have did not have time to do the config at that moment)
