Im wondering how you import custom textures, like what filetype they need to be.
OR. If someone knows if there is a post, or links to textures people have made, that can be incorporated right into eePanels, where can I find them at?

There was a really good guide somewhere, but alas I am at work and cannot find it. But in summary...
1.File types must be .tga and images need to be in dimensions of x2 (othwerwise images will appear stretched and distorted) and they need an alpha channel.
2.Put the custome textures in your eepanels folder (anywhere is fine, but i have folder designated /addons/eepanels/ctextures)
3. From in game, eepanels options, under textrue border or where you want it just copy the file path.
here are some fun textures from warcraft 3 that you can use in eepanels...

Somone linked something I made!!! ^.^ sweet.
with eePanels, you have to have advanced mode turned on, and in the background texture input box you have to type:
\\Interface\\AddOns\\eePanels\\texture.tga or texture.blp
Textures also have to be a power of two like Eonblue said, which is 2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512, and 1024. The texture must have an alpha layer, and be either .tga or .blp.

Sounds more advanced than I am.
last post in this thread for me.
I think 512x512 is the biggest you can use in WoW.

I've been told on other forums the highest is 1024x1024. I may be wrong, just try it out.
