With all due respect to this tutorial, I do not instructive because the start and taking the photos and also installed and configured it too quickly .. I think I need a tutorial to explain the whole process from the beginning, and slowly to people (like me ..) who know nothing about it. Showing step by step all the movements and the process to follow to add a damn picture in our cockpit .. (Version novice ..) .. hehehehe .. - Regards -

1. Get a picture you like, such as some nice hardcore porn from the internet
2. Use a simple editor like Windows Picture Manager to crop it to a size you want (256 x 256 max) / change the effect etc then save it to [my documents]\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover -MOD\DashPics\Templates
3. Install Paint.NET (if you haven't got Photoshop or GIMP)
4. In Paint.NET open the Blank.tga file in [my documents]\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover -MOD\DashPics\Templates
5. Choose Layers>Import from file and select your image
6. Use arrow keys to position
7. Save as '1.tga'
8. Move it from [my documents]\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover -MOD\DashPics\Templates into [my documents]\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover -MOD\DashPics\Selected

It'll work in game.

Have to say, I'm disappointed at the response, I was hoping to see all of the skirt from our pilots
