I can do it the other way around fine but this doesn't want to let me.
Open the folder in which you have the .zip/.ftl file(s). If on W7/XP - open the "Tools" menu, choose "Folder Options". Choose the "View" tab. UN-check "Hide extensions for known file types". Apply and/or OK.
Then just right-click the desired file and choose rename - the extension should be changeable as well now. OR select the file and press F2 - that's the keyboard shortcut for rename.
Hope I helped

**EDIT**
Well, I've tested all three ship editors/makers and I'm still waiting for one that would be comprehensive and would actually work.
This one seems to be the best, is able to define the shield geometry, etc. - but no floorplan editing (not that hard, MSpaint-like functions to implement), jumbling the ship at save/load (impossible to tell at which moment) - save a good ship floorplan, load one with rooms overlapping each other, doors outside of the ship and blanked (and uneditable) fields in the description - augmentations, weapons, etc..
I'll be around, but I have to admit I'm really looking forward to "one-click magic" comprehensive ship editor which would just save your ship properly, do all the images, shields geometry, descriptions, etc. properly, leaving the players with only designing and loading its .ftl into the game by GMM on their mind.
