Hi, for those of you who have either photoshop or paint shop pro, you can edit and save in dds format, but you need the Nvidia plug-in: DDS plugin (http://developer.nvidia.com/object/photoshop_dds_plugins.html)

Also heres a dds thumbnail viewer, so windows explorer can see the dds files:
DDS Thumbnail viewer (http://developer.nvidia.com/object/dds_thumbnail_viewer.html)

The game uses dds image files (its a more compact image with alpha channels) anyway, I figure many of you knew this, but posted the links in case you didnt.

EDIT: the thumb viewer above does not work with x64 systems, however this one does:
mysticthumbs (http://mysticcoder.net/mysticthumbs.html) however it is not a free program (30 day trail) if somone knows of a free one, let me know..
