What kind of file is a .dds? What application/device creates it?
I've never heard of that extension.

I have been working with those types of textures for over 3 years, and I am very familiar with them. If you would like a .dds file to be converted, then you may send the file to my e-mail address as an attachment, so I can convert it for you, and send it back in whatever format you want.

A dds file is a direct draw texture file. You might be able to use Paint.Net(free) to convert it, as it looks like it supports the dds file format.

No, Paint does not support .dds textures.

That's why I said Paint.Net, which does open DDS files.
Paint.Net is a .net based image editing application that supports a lot more features than MSPaint. The documentation says it supports dds files and just tested it and was able to open some dds files from one of the directx samples microsoft provides with the XNA framework. I was also able to then save it as a JPG.
