The best editing software you can use is without a doubt Adobe Photoshop. It's the greatest editing app out there, and the simplest to use. I've used Fireworks and Paint Shop Pro....and none of them compare with the quality and ease of Photoshop.

You'll need winzip as well for extracting the files you need from the pk3 files(tik, shader, tga).

Then once you have the tga files edited the way you like, and you have the code from the tik/shader files done correctly, you'll need Winzip to zip into a pk3 file.

Remember....NEON skins are cheats, so don't make them =)
