Thanks tom, I'm a little rusty, can't seem to get the panel finder over the aircraft skin, I try color to alpha, rgb, copy visible layer, past as new layer, merge visible layer but all I get left is the panel finder, I'm sure I'm doing it wrong, I found some old vids for using gimp with IL2 1946 but I'm struggling here, wish there was a tutorial in the sticky here, video would be great, any help? I saw some really nice skins on the servers the other night, I want a custom skin too.
thanks, Jay
