Images imported into Starcraft 2 maps can be in TGA or DDS format.

The Compressonator is a standalone program able to convert images into multiple formats, including TGA and DDS.

When saving TGA images, click the "Options" button and uncheck RLE compression.

If you have Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro, you can use Nvidia's DDS converter plugin:

When saving DDS images, choose "DXT3", "2d texture" and "No MIP maps".
