Would you kindly send me the map and the image? You can attach them to your post if you'd like.
I've heard of people having problems with the preview image if you use the compress method (when saving as a .tga-file, you usually have a "Compress (RLE)" option, try turning that off).
Also, 256x256 images do work (file size is slightly larger of course).


Your method seems perfectly fine though. I just tested myself with a 128x128 image (and all possible option, 24-bit/32-bit/compressed/not compressed). All of them worked, so yours should work as well.
Would be nice if I could have a look, but just changing the size and/or compress method usually does the trick.

You need to have "hide map preview" unchecked.

Heres the image

I just imported the image in my map and didn't have any problems. Preview screen showed up nicely, so ruleofiron99 might be correct there.
It's in Scenario -> Map Options and then the first checkbox. (I thought it was disabled by default though, but I'm actually not completely sure about that).

It's war3MapPreview.tga or war3MapPreview.blp

Yes, it is unchecked by default. But most mappers usually check it early during a map's development as a placeholder (to hide horrible terrain) until they get a preview.

its unticked its not that

It's wc3MapPreview.tga or wc3MapPreview.blp

No, it's war3mapPreview.tga (or .blp). wc3mapPreview does not work.
It's been that way for as long as I can remember

Fasterdavid: can you attach the map as well so other people (such as myself) can try to import it? If it works, we can just send it back to you.
If you're worried about someone stealing anything, you can post it in a PM.
I really don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. I can use the image you sent as a preview screen.
