.Png-.Blp

[DredLord2]

I created an icon, but a saved it's saved as a .Png. I also saved the same image as a .Blp, but when I imported the .BLP it came up in green. Yes, I did put in a DIS, and I gave it the right path. So I tryed doing it the the .Png file, but the .Png file came up as an "Other" subject. I'm wonder if by converting the .PNG into a .BLP will fix the problem. Is it even possable to convert a .Png into a .blp?

what do you means with "I also saved the same image as a .Blp"

Do you means you've just save it with a classical paint soft with ".blp" at the end? if so, it doesn't work, file format are not only 3 caracters after a dot, file format are a data coding's rules, and paint doesn't know blp's rules.

You've to save as TGA and convert it into BLP with the BLPconv tool.

I would recommend this procedure:

1. Convert your .png to a .jpg using your image editing software.
   
   
2. Use Warcraft III Viewer to convert the .jpg into a .blp.
   
   
3. Remember to add an alpha channel during step 2.

Oh, I am so stupid... Thanks Wolverabid.

This doesn't work, when I convert itr to .blp, I import the icon, including the DIS form of it. But when I try to use the Icon as a charactar's interface, it crashes WE...
