- Open DDS Converter and click the add button. Select all of the images you want to convert and click ok
- Choose the output folder.
- Set the Output Format to PNG
- Click the Convert button
- Click OK twice
- Click Close because it's done
Upload images to the wiki either by using the Embedded file dialog when editing a page, or by clicking Upload file in the Tools links section (to the left using the default wiki theme). Images should not be renamed. This makes finding them more difficult and it breaks pre-formatted data exported from the game. You are strongly encouraged to add the name of the block or item to the description so that the image is easier to find in the future.
