Can anyone come up with a map for me, because i have tried many times to use the editor that turns pictures into maps, and i can't work it. it just doenst like me... 
if someone knows how to work that, could they make me a 192 x 192 map of the description?
Edit: Instead of 192 x 192 if you can just get me a map, any size except 64 x 64 id be happy...

Are you using BMP2SCM? In my experience, this program works best with 128x128 maps. I have found the 128x128 must be in the same folder that BMP2SCM is in, otherwise it will crash. You could use Starcraft Picture Mapper 2.0, but I don't know if you will have any success with that. Also, there is a picture of Japan just in case you don't have a picture.

Thank you for trying to help, but i have no clue on how to use any of those programs. Do any of them actually make a playable map, not just like a mini map sexy pics thing?
ADDITION:
Ok i think i might have it figured uot the converting and stuff on bmp2scm but, whenever i try to load the picture, of japan the thing is way to big (i do it in paint to change the colors to a soild color) how can i make it smaller so that i can see the picture instead of just white, and make it so somthing loads up on the map?

There should be help in bmp2scm. Basicly, you open a 128x128 map using this program, then open a picture in this program, and then you convert the colors to tiles using starforge's master palet. When you click on a tile in starforge's master palet, there will be a number at the top of this window. Times this number by 16, and then put the resulting number in bmp2scm.
Also, you could try using google images to find a image of japan you like.
