Default Re: Map: King of the Hill

In any paint program for any project, I highly recommend saving in the programs native format prior to the final save. In many cases (such as GIMP) it will allow you to save layers, palettes, fonts if there is text.. everything as a seperate component which can be changed without having to erase and blend in the changes. You also wont have compressions that can alter the image to a point that you cant get back to.

Just "flatten" it to a one-layer image prior to saving it in the format that you will distribute.
