Make sure you save your file as 24 bit and not 32 bit
Check to see if the skin.bmp is 1 mb and not 3 mb,
usually they are 3 mb untill run through "bright",then they are reduced to 1 mb and will then show up in game.Bright also reduces pixallation on skins as well as reducing the size of the file.
Reduce to a 24 bit file instead of 32 bit in GIMP, copy/paste the .bmp file into your "Bright" folder. Open the folder, double click the 'Bright./bat' icon (not the 'Bright.exe) and Bright will work it's magic, leaving you with the proper file attributes for an IL-2 skin.
