oh,well...i guess i'll bring 10k garlic....
On Topic:
Even Gimp has more brushes than psp....but i kinda stoped using them(custom brushes),since i am now trying to make sigs using the render and filters.

when u import?
i use psp to draw
then gimp to alpha since my psp screws the alpha
then i use blp con to convert but it gives low quality..i cant usethe viewer since my tga come upside down..
so photoshop is good if you r a texturer and filter and psp is good if you are a drawer...
i never ever use filters unless is direly needed...i hiss at filter...Hiiss...

All you have to do is rotate the image vertically, then save and open in viewer and its the right way up .

 

[Werewulf]

yeah..but wont the alpha be screwed up 2?

 

[Morrowind1357]

Really not sure there, every alpha i've attempted didn't work

 

[Falcoknight]

Alfas are easy...

 

[Werewulf]

not really falco good o candy man.
different programs and such have different ways..
ps alpha is easy.
psp alpha is crap
and gimps alpha is cluggy.
and each of them are invold with alphas differenty

save as TGA and go to wc3sear.ch tool section find Wc3 Image Extractor II and extract as BLP at 100% quality then wala...just get the path right

Example:
1) Open Wc3 Image Extractor
2) Find Units/Orc/Grunt/Grunt.BLP
3) Save as .TGA for (4#1) or Jpeg/Bmp for (4#2)
4#1) Open with Photoshop, or any other TGA user
4#2) Open with Paint, or any other Program that allows BMP's or Jpeg editing
5) Doodil McFoodil
6) Your grunt looks like a weird thing with dots all over it... Newb!
7) Save as Bmp or TGA
8) Open in Wc3 Image Extractor
9) Save as .BLP
10) Import into Warcraft III Map Editor
11) Change path to Units/Orc/Grunt/Grunt.BLP
12) Test the Map, be sure to actualy place a grunt (It wont show skin in map Editor)

PS: Skins will only show in map editor when closed and opened... :S dunno why
PS2: Show me your finished product
