Download WC3 Viewer in the tools section
Open up WC3 Viewer, extract the skin from the mpq via the tree list (browse through the categories to find your skin)
Extract it as a .tga (recommended)
Open up your image editing program
Open up the extracted skin via it
Work on the skin. Note that you should use the zoom in tool. Try not to change sensetive parts like the background and try to be accurate.
