Right now I don't have the target location.

But what you do is import your image in to WC3 with a special taget, like MapPreview.blp or something of that sort. This is not the first time (It is more close to the 500th time) this has been asked, so please use the searchfunction. Unless you want me to do that for you aswell, or someone else.

Minimap Preview: the pic you see when you choose a game at bnet
In-game minimap: the pic you see in-game

To change the minimap preview, make a 512x512 pic, convert it to BLP with Warcraft III Viewer, import it as War3MapPreview.blp

I just tried the new editor you guy shave on the DL section they protect ur map and make it easy to get those screens changed, too bad my map is made already, is there a way to get teh map protected if I created it first with the original WD?
