Custom Icons

My Question: I created a custom icon, and a disabled version of it. I can make the normal one work but how do you make the disabled one appear when you pause or when it hasn't been researched? Thank you any assistance you might give.

put the original in ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons/BTN(icon name here)
and the disabled in ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled\DisBTN (Same name as other)

then when something with the 1st icon is disabeled it will show the disabled one

All that suceeded in doing was causeing a serious error, than a blue screen of death. The paths were:

Code:
ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BNTCoralBed.blp
Code:
ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled\DISBNTCoralBed.blp

There real icons, but when I start the game, the icons appear green and it crashes

-EDIT-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
It may be an alpha problem. Ill double check (although they worked alright normally)

Lol, no you don't.
The paths are:

replaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNIconNameHere.blp
replaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled\DISBTNIconNameHere.blp

Where you replace IconNameHere with the name of your icon. It CAN be custom.

What I do is make the icon in a 64x64 pixel image, then I save as a .jpg. In Warcraft 3 Viewer 2, I convert the .jpg into a .blp.

I know they work, because I go tthe normal one to, but it gives me error when I used the way to disable it

Its not that important for now.
