To obtain a skin to edit you must extract it from the .mpq file. Use Warcraft III Viewer's Treeview>BLP tool to browse to the texture file you wish to edit. Right click the file and select: Extract (and convert) BLP. Save the file and begin your editing process.

.tga files are images: they are only one among many formats that computers use to display pictures or photographs.

Other types of image files include:

• .bmp
• .gif
• .jpg
• .png
• .tga
• .tif

There are many other file formats, but those are the most common. Warcraft III uses the .blp format for its images and you must convert them (using Warcraft III Viewer) into either .bmp, .jpg or .tga to edit them.

As you learn how to work with, manage and edit images with your computer, you'll discover just how easy it is!

Try to get help from a friend or relative that can "show you the ropes."

Some basic image editing tutorials can be found here.
