Default Re: MapEditing Faq anuwhere?

Okay, so the project is -

I take my map, which can be anything. I might try to add red borders if I want to have the automapper draw province connections for me but this doesn't actually work.

I make sure that the map contains no pure-white pixels (a global color swap should take care of this.)

I add another layer, and on this other layer I place a white square everywhere that I want to have a province? When the map is played, you have to click on these white squares to select provinces, so they should be fairly big, yes?

Can anyone recommend a free (as in beer) piece of software I could use to do this natively in .tga files?
