What portrait?

[The fallen one]

What you talkin about how do you get it into the game????. Just put it into the potrait folder and then you can access it from the game. Go to the record screen and hit customize.

But first make sure you converted it to a bitmap (BMP) format! You need to make 2 copies of them: a big one(110x170) AND a small one (38x60).

Last beetle I have never had to do that. Most places have it formated for you. But good point

[Craig]

its in BMP(or what ever) all i get is a big ? like when you Ctrl+Q

I also have the same problem. I WAS able to do it before, but somehow.. not any more.. groanz... any help anyone?

[Craig]

Any one?

If you want, you can send it to me and ill have a look at it. Or send me the picture your making it from and ill do it for you.

But remeber that:
The files must not be more the 8 chars long ei: xxxxxxxx.bmp and should be called xxxxxxxL.bmp for large version and xxxxxxxS.bmp for the small.
Large Picture can be 24bit. Small one should only be 256colors (8bit).
The sizes are:
BIG= w110 h170 pixels
small=38w h60 pixels

Hope that helps.

How do I do I do that with Paint Shop Pro?

[KaaZe]

Sorry, I do not know how Paint Shop works. Anyone else?

LOL Northjytland me too Frederikshavn

well I know how to do it but it is most weird. I do it in a ".txt" as a HTML file.

start it as a normal html site and in the body write this &lt;body&gt;&lt;img src="XXXXXX.XXX" width=38 height=60&gt;&lt;/body&gt;

XXXXX.XXX=the name of the file (picture) just remember to put the file in the same folder as your html otherwise you ´will have to define the path to it.

now you have it in a html site like on the internet in the right
size. all you have to do now is copy and paste it into paint. and if you need the big one just change the numbers in width and hight to 110 and 170. it is a long way but it works and doesn't take that long as it sounds. complicatet...yes but hey it works for me everytime
