I'm using this one:

From the readme:
Save images as png, jpg, bmp, tga, dds (even ati1n/3dc+ compression)

there's also a free plugin for Photoshop though PS is not free...

btw SH3 doesn't use dds, shouldn't this be in the sh4 area...?
maybe you'll get more answers. just a thought...

Hi Makman,

Try this: http://www.paint.net/

I use this Paint-Programm allways, with this Program you can create any images and than save your image as xxxxx.dds ( DXT1, DXT3, DXT5 Compression) and this Programm its Freeware, you need installed Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
