My guess would be they'd have to be the right format (.bmp file?) and a certain size. Wish I had the exact parameters but I use the stock maps.

I used an art program to re-sized them to 512x512 and saved them as .bmp they work great.

  I just printed them out on a color printer.  I find this to be more handy when I am flying.

You should have multiple folders in the downloaded zip package:

maps  (this includes the bmp files for adding to your clipboard).

maps_Printable8x10 (these are the 8x10s for printing if you choose to do so).

For reference the installation instructions are found on the following thread:  http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,346706.0.html

Enjoy!
