Same issue trying to put my wife's picture on the Captain's desk.

Full admit here,, I'm not an editing genius. I thought open the image ,, edit and save as .dds would be as easy as it sounds.
Like you, I too, must confess... am not exactly well versed in editing either.

To be quite frank about it, am like a hand with all thumbs when it comes to it... some editing I do, is just following by rote what some one else has laid out in mapping what to do exactly & diagrams it out with pics to boot.

That aside, I did ask about what to use to do editing to the correct .dds file to be tinkering about with, and was told that gimp was the tool to use to do so with.
