When it comes to anything to do with developing, I might as well be a 110 year old lady with her first computer, so can someone talk me through a repaint step by step please? Thank you.

Again the biggest thing is....FS9 or FSX?
DXT.Bmp will work fine for FS9...But will give you all kinds of problems saving for FSX!
Grab PhotoShop 8(C/S)....With plugin it will do all the work for you when saving for FSX.

For six hundred bucks I don't think so. Photoshop 5.5 works just as good as 8. And it's $10 on ebay.

For FSX. Any free paint shop pro like in the first tutrial?, even a trial version will do? In the meantime, I'll give a search a go.
