As far as the decals, I know that they have to be a .tga file of a certain size and may have to be a certain resolution. They can't be edited in MSPaint.

Would be cool if someone made a guide that was applicable for GIMP or Paint.net.

How outdated? I used to use Photoshop 7. Then I got Elements 9, and then Elements 7.
