Welcome to the hive IcOniK!

>i found some rly cool skins but i dont know how to put them in the game,

That's easy, import the skin and change the path to the original one. Here's a tutorial - Click Here!

To make it easy.. I'll post it up here...

* Open your skin and save it in BLP format.
* Import your skin into World Editor.
* Change the custom path to the exact original.

Example: Units\Human\Sorceress\BloodElfSorceress.blp

Hey thanks man been trying all day woke up pretty late but thx alot it helped alot. but i encountered a second problem, when i clicked download the extractor it lead me to the hiveworkshop main page and so i found another program called infocepter is that ok too? thx

Never heard of infocepter before when I downloaded the Image Extractor.

Try Warcraft III Viewer.

To convert it to BLP format, press Ctrl + V, then choose your skin file. (Tga, etc) It will be successfully converted to BLP then you import it now.
