How do I include a new portrait with my scenario? Unread post

Okay, so I found the Player Portrait application in the User Skinning Tools folder. I think I can add a portrait to my own game with this, I'm about to find out. But it looks like it would be hard to include a new portrait with a scenario, which is really my goal. Any hints on how this is accomplished?

I struggled with this making Athabasca. I had trouble following the directions in the readme file or simply running the little conversion program. In the end I think I loaded the James Hill small file, copy-pasted my image of Arthur Sifton into it, and saved it as a new file.

I was working with GIMP. Possbly Photoshop would have been a different experience.

It has been a couple of years since I did it though so my memory about it could be very flawed. There has only been a handful of new Player images.
