Help converting from blp to tga and back again

Okay im doing something wrong with converting and converting back. Heres what I'm doing:

1. I import a file to world editor and ofcourse it shows up and can be made an item icon.

2. I export it so i can edit it.

3. Convert it to .tga so i can mess with it in photo shop with war3viewer

4. Mess with it then convert it back.

5. import it back into worldeditor and it doesnt show up. its "blank"



What am I doing wrong? =/

Save the map then try to look at it again. That's usually my problem.

thx hope your right...

If what ThyFlame said doesn't work, the your problem might be because icons also have some sort of alpha-channel that can sometimes get messed up, causing the icon to become invisible in game.

Thankyou, what thyflame said was right! Man worldedit is sooo buggy..
