I read somewhere that paint.net has a plug in that will allow you to do layerd psd files, if your thinking of doing anything with those, and you cant get hold of PS :)

the versio of DXTBMP is fine, now heres a first step lets start with something easy, evter DXTBMP and go to your airplane files and select the C172 open the file called texture.1 (or the first one) once in that folder open C172_T.DDS save it as a 24 bit bitmap onto your desktop and its good to edit mess around with the editing then post here
