i am really just starting to get into map editing, and i am wondering, what plug ins do you use, and what are the best?

Ummm, UMSWE for editing, HeavyLocker for sealing, wc3color for all my coloring needs :) Although I only use UMSWE when I need a particular edition like raised land or certain triggers.

UMSWE: If you don't get this you are not a mapper!

HeavyLocker: No comment. Haven't tried it yet, but according to most users, it works pretty great.

WC3Color: Doesn't work very good. If you want some text to be in red, it should generate this:

|c00FF0000Red text|r

but instead it generates this: (= loads of unnessary code)

|c00f00000R|r|c00f00000e|r|c00f00000d|r|c00f00000 |r|c00f00000t|r|c00f00000e|r|c00f00000x|r|c00f00000t|r

and the colour HEXs it use, they always end up in 0, so if you want some text to be completely white, it should generate this:

|c00FFFFFFCompletely white text|r

but instead it generates this:

|c00f0f0f0C|r|c00f0f0f0o|r|c00f0f0f0m|r|c00f0f0f0p|r|c00f0f0f0l|r|c00f0f0f0e|r|c00f0f0f0t|r|c00f0f0f 0e|r|c00f0f0f0l|r|c00f0f0f0y|r|c00f0f0f0 |r|c00f0f0f0w|r|c00f0f0f0h|r|c00f0f0f0i|r|c00f0f0f0t|r|c00f0f0f0e|r|c00f0f0f0 |r|c00f0f0f0t|r|c00f0f0f0e|r|c00f0f0f0x|r|c00f0f0f0t|r

resulting in an not-so-completely white text. For <colour here>-to-<colour here> text, just do a little math and type the code by hand...
