Probably not, because .ccm format isn't picture.
But I haven't tried, so there is some hope.

i think you right, cuz they are not pics, but some png's can be saved as ccm, so maybe possible to convert it

ccm stands for Carnage Contest Map which means it's a special format so it only works with Carnage Contest and that further means that there doesn't exist any converter for it to convert to png/ bmp/ anything else.

you can save normal png/ bmp images ingame into a ccm file. by doing that there are some little information which are saved to the file additionally, like transparency for example so the terrain can be load little faster when opening a ccm file instead a png/ bmp file because the terrain hasn't to be rendered new (if I remind that correctly)

× the bad news first: it's currently not possible to convert ccm maps to images.

√ the good news: next version of carnage contest allows to convert/export all cc maps as png images. release will be within the next few months. maybe already this month. the feature is available from the map editor (you have to host a game to access the editor)

Good new is good, but not at all. Now *.ccm maps are copyright protected.
DC, will be in CC some copyright protection ? Like when map loaded first time to editor, editor ask about author name, and add a some hex value that will be mean what this map allready have author name ? i think it will be good, cuz *.png dont have this value what mean map was not in editor

no there is no protection. don't publish maps for CC if you fear that they will be stolen. same as for CS2D.
even if I would add tags it would be easy to modify those.

I also don't want to have a discussion about that again. I already discussed it for Stranded II and CS2D. stealing is always possible. deal with it or don't create stuff.
