Depends on how you want to modify them. Can you explain a bit more?

I think you're asking how to edit them?  Adjust the lighting effects, etc?

I can't help you there, I've never done it.  But I can tell you you need to have a basic editing program, and asking for help from the guys who do this type of editing would be your quickest route to success.

Go right to the Screenshots section of the forum, an do a search for a basic how-to thread, or ask to be pointed toa  how-to thread, or ask for pointers from the guys who hang out/post stuff in there.

This is a good place to ask for help (Help and Training), but for something specific like this I'd ask in there.  Guys who have a lot of interest in that facet may not have an interest in this section, so may not check in here to answer questions...  They may, but may not.

Firstly,

you need to get an image editing platform. I suggest TheGimp or Paint.net as they are free. Once you have these you can sort through all of the filters to achieve what you want.

Yes GIMP is ver nice for image editing, check out the "Screenshots and Film" section and you can see some of these edits at work.  :aok

If you just want to open them, crop, resize, change from *.bmp to .jpg I'd recomend Irfanview.
Freeware, opens every graphics file, saves as most including windows Icon.

Very simple and easy interface to learn compared to Gimp, PSP, Adobe.
