Firstly, if you want to learn how to be able to host, watch my tutorial:

If it confuses you too much, then i can PM you a very simple tutorial that SHOULD work (depends on what the problem is).
Now for your real problem. Maps for WWP need to be .BIT ... and i think that is the only problem. Here's a good place to find maps for WWP: http://www.clansfx.co.uk/

Errr..... im not trying to host.... i cant login!!!!!!! let me explain it again... i go to the wormnet panel and then i DOUBLE-CLICK wormnet 2.0... after that it "loads" something but the button to login doesnt appear ¬¬.... the screen remains blue with the worms animation in the background... but nothing happens O,o

Yes i play a lot in the WWP folder ... I have made my own speech, grave and flag ... i think i know what i am talking about.
You need to save .BIT files to WWP folder/User/Savedlevels Then you can press the panel on the editor, choose a map, and click "Load" ... for what i meant.
As for your problem, try make sure the "map" is 1920x696 .bmp or .jpeg (remember that black is like transparent). save it in "import folder", open the edtitor - select import - choose map. (guess you already knew what i just said, just wanted to repeat it) Make sure the water isn't too high, and change it if possible (don't think it is, tho). If this doesn't work, then try changing the "map color" to manhattan or hospital before importing. Having too many worms on the map may cause your problem. If you done all this then i don't know what the problem is :(
EDIT: Don't know what the wormnet problem is either, sorry :(
