Making Hero Scorescreen Icons

I can't seem to make working scorescreen icons, could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong.

Extract "scorescreen-hero-archmage.blp" using Wc3 Image Extractor II, save as tga
Extract "Banditmage.blp" using Wc3 Image Extractor II, save as tga

Open both in Adobe Photoshop

Remove border and resize Banditmage.tga to 32x32, paste into border in scorescreen-hero-archmage.tga. Save as "scorescreen-hero-banditmage.tga"

Open "scorescreen-hero-banditmage.tga" in Wc3 Image Extractor II and save as blp

Import "scorescreen-hero-banditmage.blp" to worldedit, under directory ui\glues\scorescreen\

Give custom hero scorescreen icon (in scorescreen icon field)

The icon comes up in the hero tab of the scorescreen, but it has a huge black border around it (where the ready made icons have nothing)

Any help appreciated.

You can use any other icon as a scorescreen icon. Unless you want custom ones you are wasting a whole bunch of time.

Using non scorescreen icons makes the icon too big, I want them all the right size ;) I just don't see why what i'm doing isn't working, is there a special colour you need to make the background so that worldedit knows it's invisible or something?

I believe I know what your talking about. The same thing happened to me on my project. The icon was too big but I decieded to live with it. Sorry I can't be of further help to you. Perhaps when you selct that icon, the editor thinks you mean the build icon which is a bit bigger, that would explain it.
