If it's only a skin you want to import to the World Editor (and NOT a home made model), do this:

1. Create a *.blp file with your new/edited skin (convert it from a *.tga file using Photoshop or PSP)
2. Open the Importer in the World Editor and choose “Import�
3. Find your *.blp file and open it. The address of your imported *.blp file is something like “war3mapImported\YourSkinNameHere.blp�
4. By double-clicking on the file, the menu “Imported File Properties� appears
5. Mark the field called “Use custom path� and change the address. It is very important that you put the ‘same' skin back in its own address. For instance, if you made a skin, using the skin of a Human Sorceress, the address (in the MPQ file) will be: “Units\Human\Sorceress\Sorceress.blp�. After changing your skin (using this skin), you must give it the same address as its custom path.
6. Add a Sorceress (unit) to your map and run it. The sorceress will now wear your skin… ;)

Good luck, mate…
