1)  The same place as the rest, Characters/Creatures/*Faction*/AlternativeUpgrade

2)  Which creatures in particular?  TotE ones are in UI\H5A2\Icons\Creatures

3)  Save them with all folder paths intact as an archive with the .h5m extension and put them in your Maps folder, or do the same with the .h5u extension and put it in the UserMods folder.

Problems solved

thanx. And should it be .zip or .rar file renamed to .h5u, or it doean't matter? Should I check "read only"?

Only .zips will work, once the folder paths match those in data.pak.  The extension must be changed to .h5u or .h5m.  People have had problems with the .h5u method but I can assure you that putting .h5m files into the Maps directory will work.  And no, there's no need to check Read-Only.

Only zip archives will work.

For 1.6 and 3.0 (and later I assume), use the .h5u extension in UserMODs/.
For 2.1, use the .h5m in Maps/ (but I expect 2.2 to introduce .h5u in HoF as well).

Note that it is only a matter of renaming the file, so no big deal anyway for people knowing their way around. If you want to read more, I detailed the good practices for mod extension.

I edited the pages, and moved them to the tutorials section:
http://www.heroesofmightandmagic.com/heroes5/modding_wiki/modding_tutorials:edit_spells
http://www.heroesofmightandmagic.com/heroes5/modding_wiki/modding_tutorials:edit_town_buildings

Have a look at the syntax for next time.
When writing a block of xml code, use the <code xml>...</code> tags. This will trigger syntax highlighting, as you can see.

I'd appreciate it if someone would add the list of abilities I made a while ago - I haven't the time to do it.

EDIT - Cool, thanks Guarder.

Now, when Sfidanza is not a moderator anymore, maybe he should get a QP for creating the Modding Wiki?
I think he really deserves that. The modding Wiki is a great tool that will be used by the HC modders maybe for the next few years, if it will be edited and updated properly.

Some excellent guides in the forum haven't been added to the Modding Wiki. Writers, please insert your guides to the Wiki, so more people will notice it and will be able to use it.

Here's a list of the guides:
-Texture Editing - by Gnoll_Mage
-creatures apperance changes - basics - by Radar
-Adding creatures in ToE - by Sfidanza
-Tutorial for editing textures in GIMP - by 2ndHero
-Modding animations and other stuff - by ZombieLord
-Editing abilities - by Cephues

There might be more, or guides that have been added to the Modding Wiki and I didn't notice.

Will add mine now if you want, although it's not finished.

Also, Eugen_Cosmarul and Daystar have written one each since you posted:
