Painting car in N2002/how to convert jpg file to tga??

I'm trying to make a new car for N2002 and I have this .jpg graphics file I would like to use as the hood graphic. I'm wondering what software do I need to convert this file to .tga format? This is the format needed in N2002 for car painting. thanks Gary

Get Either paintShopPro or "The Gimp" for windows. Both of those programs will allow you to paint your car OUTSIDE the sim and then create the necessary tga file. At that point you can go into the sim and import the entire paintjob. -- ========================================================= Redneck Techno-Biker & "programming deity" http://www.paddedwall.org/john DeMONS/1 for Nascar Racing 3 & Nascar Legends http://www.paddedwall.org/demons DeMONS/2 for Nascar Racing 4 and 2002 Season (in development) http://www.paddedwall.org/demons2 Barbarian Diecast Collector (460+ cars and counting) http://www.paddedwall.org/diecast If you want to send me email, go to the first URL shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================
