If i tried to load them in Photoshop 6.0 using the plugin, it comes a message up that say "Unexpecetd EOF".

Yeah, the 8x8 ground-tile shapes are still unsupported. Shouldn't be too much work to add it.

The GIMP plugin supports them :)

Will be nice if Photoshop can be updated.
For the meantime i will try Gimp, but where can i get the plugin?

It's in the source, and you need to compile it yourself. I don't know if the GIMP plugin works under Windows though

Gimp plugin doesn't work on Windows...
Gimp for Windows is really poorly supported, at least when I last checked.

The structure of these 8x8 shapes is very easy: it's just 64 raw bytes. (1 byte/pixel)

If photoshop has a "raw" input file mode, you might be able to read it using that. (You need to get the palette from a 'normal' shape, though)
