You can extract the UI skin files using an MPQ browser if you want a base picture to work on... then edit them in a photo editing software then import to your map...

where can i see the skins in the mpq? what mpq file, too?

 

[Dr Super Good]

Search the patch mpq, then the expansion mpq and finally the orignal MPQ. That is the order the game searches when looking for a file.

 

[Adiktuz]

the file paths inside the mpq is the same as the file paths you see in the editor

there are, but, basically it is blp files? so i'll need it to be converted so I can edit it? Can you provide me a good converting tool?

Just use wc3 viewer [downloadable on tools section], it can extract+convert blp files [directly from the mpq files] into tga,jpg, or bitmap files and vice versa
