Making pictures on SMAC... Put an end to popups!

Okay, so I need help customizing a faction...

I know how do use the faction editor and all that crap, but I would like to know how to edit the pictures for the factions...

So lets say, for comical reasons, I wanted to use a picture of Bush off the Internet and make it the picture used for a faction leader? Or perhaps I want to use a picture for the bases...

Currently my computer opens all of the SMAC pictures in Microsoft Picture It!

I would appreciate help, thanks...

The Network Node has a nice little tutorial on how to edit Factional pics. FYI.

Not simply overpowered factions, but game-breaking factions!

IIRC there was one that was +2 growth and creche in every base :O.
Let's see: I'll get planetary networks, switch to planned and boom my way to lots of librarians.

The Brave New World one . The worst example of designing a faction is the Orwellian one.

I think that could still be a little beefy. +(or ++)GROWTH has to have some major offsets.

Shrug, depends on the perspective. If your playing against these overpowered Factions, then it makes the game more, ah, "interesting".... I myself have built some replacement Prog Factions which I regularly play against. I've uploaded the files in case anyone is interested.
