Please if someone could recolor spell icons to = Red,Blue,Green,Yellow,Black,White. The spells icons i need most are undead spells.

EDIT: I were writing fast and i made a wrong topic, it should be [Request], not [Recolor], can someone tell me how to fix it?

You can't edit your own thread titles, also it would help if you knew which icons you wanted changed. 6 recolours per icon could get rather tedious, as just 5 is already 30 we'd have to make.

I need Plague Cloud, Drain Life, Possession, Death Coil, Dark Ritual, Replenish Health (it has blue icon in-game also) , Death Pact, Frost Armor. These are I need to my project now, cos i make many undead heroes and skills :) As UD skills they don't need the white one except Replenish Health and Frost Armor.

So, what do you need in what colours...

Possession - Blue, green, yellow, red, white, black?
Plague Cloud - Blue, green, yellow, red, white, black?
Drain Life - Blue, green, yellow, red, white, black?
Death Coil - Blue, green, yellow, red, white, black?
Dark Ritual - Blue, green, yellow, red, white, black?
Replenish Health - Blue, green, yellow, red, white, black?
Death Pact - Blue, green, yellow, red, white, black?
Frost Armor - Blue, green, yellow, red, white, black?

Do you need passives? Do you need actives?

Stuff like that has to be told clearly, as it makes it easier for the person doing said requests.

Well there aren't any specific recolour tutorials (as this behaviour is discouraged amongst artists) but you'll need several things:

1. Any MPQ editing program
2. Any program that can convert BLP's to anything that's editable (usually tga) AND back to BLP
3. Any photoshop-like program (or photoshop itself
4. The Photoshop Border Pack for WC3 Icons

Photoshop is easiest because it's got a very easy to use interface.

EDIT!
Photoshop is being moody, I am REALLY sorry about that. I won't be able to do it.

I gave them all a try and some of them I couldn't do, but I'm not an uber god of recolours. I did the ones I could AND understood, that was Death Coil, Dark Ritual and Plague Cloud. I didn't understand "Black" because A it's not a colour and B unlike white which can be represented by grey, I don't know how to show "black".

My meaning of Black color was like to be a very dark gray, because black is main color of skill frames in WC3 if i said it enough english (im from poland, not so good at english atm)

By the way, thank you for doing these icons you have done already, They are Awesome!! But i think that there isn't a DISBTN Death Coil Blue.
