I have figured out how to do division pictures using Photoshop. Can someone explain how I overlay the template over the pic for event or tech pics using photoshop?

Sure. For the tech pics just use the one Paradox provided (gfx\interface\tech\techs_template.psd). You might want to toy with the layers already in the template for maximum effect (with/without dirt layer etc).Micah Goodman 2 said:
Do bear in mind that images saved as a bmp file from the template the edges will blend somewhat, including the green area (some pixels will be just a smidge darker green). That implies that you either end up with a tech image with some small green spots on the sides in-game. This can be fixed by touching these up using MS Paint (correct the green RGB value of those, as those has to be the exact RGB value in order to be used as a transparent layer in-game).
For divisions and brigades you create your own by making a new image of 192x104 and 96x56 pixels respectively. Paste an existing image into the new image you created (will be a new layer), and cut out the center area. Then select the background layer and save as psd file. You should be able to paste new layers in between the frame and the background that way.
Alternatively I can mail you my own - in that case just send a PM with your email adress...
