Hi Brazz,
I'll give this a try later. I appreciate your comments. What is this "Gimp" that you refer to? I'm not familiar with the term/program.
And yeh I think it will be cool to fly in my own space. For me, I want to create my garage. After all in the winter her in Vermont, I'm to sane to fly outside (that and I'm not good enough)

Hi Scott

Gimp is quite a good free graphics editor with features very similar to Photoshop. I like it quite a lot. One can download Gimp from [link=http://www.gimp.org/]www.gimp.org[/link]. The DDS plugin is available at [link=http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=4816]http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=4816[/link]. When saving a dds file down with Gimp, leave everything as default in the saving options but select DXT1 compression.

Hope this helps.

Regards
