Hello Steve,

As far as I know, the Spline Editor only accepts *.AI or *.EPS files
(vector-based files, that is).  However, if you want a terrain relief,
you need to use the Terrain Editor.  And yes, it uses raster images
(BMP, JPEG, TIFF, etc.) in black and white or greyscale.  You can try
using a color image coupled with a particular type of shader effect,
but the terrain relief is based on black and white values (from what I
understand).

I uploaded a cleaner version of the world map for the Terrain Editor at:

Hope this helps.
