Hi all, I was whondering if anyone could point me to a place where it shows you how to do your own skins and nose art. When i try and play around with them in Photoshop, it will not let me make other layers over it. How can i edit skins and nose art?????????????

the nose art is lokated in your il2 map/PaintSchemes/noseart
and the skins in: il2map/PaintSchemes/skins/ and then you have all planes and you have to choose one.

You might not be able to make new layers because the noseart images are indexed bmp files.
