How do you get your custom portraits to work? I've read that you might need to resize them, but when I check the attributes, they are the correct size. When I choose the custom appearance option, I can get the name of the picture I am trying to use, but I keep getting the blank screen with a question mark through it. I have added the S and the L to the end of the small and large portraits, respectively. Nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

That's the same info I have and I can't get it to work. I've tried using s and S or l and L. I've tried three letter names up to seven letter names. Nothing seems to work. I'll try to download a couple more pictures and use them. Maybe it's the picture I have.

Have you restarted the game after adding in the portraits?

? Can you e-mail me the portraits you are trying to use? I will check and see if they are a-okay.

quote: I fixed it. When I went to attach the files to the e-mail, I noticed it was saved as LadyDL.bmp.bmp I just opened it with paint and saved it under a different name. Works now. Thanks. Edit: Did you receive my e-mail? |

Mitro, I'm glad that worked for you, but it's Greek to me

quote: Sorry to hear that Galadria. Are the pictures in "Portraits"? Maybe my first problem was I didn't capitalize my folder. Other than that, have you checked the properties on them? If they are the right size, open them in a paint program and save them as a different name, with a capital L (large) and S (small) at the end. I don't know how my .bmp got doubled up at the end, but that was the final problem. |
