There's nothing a little poison couldn't cure...

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.

Don't you have any pictures/ portraits on your own pc? If you do, in your personal menu you can select the option "browse" and place a picture/ portrait as an avatar.

If you don't have, there are a couple of nice sites where you can download some really good portraits for creating characters for BG series.

@Beldin

If only I had known about those threads earlier, they would have saved me oodles of time. Interesting collection of Avatars.

@Dezarond the Red

Look forward to seeing yours soon ;)

We don't mind really - if you have a picture that you want to use as an avatar, but it's too big, post it and one of us will probably resize it for you. We're nice like that. When you ask us nicely. Sometimes.

Can someone please tell me how am I supposed to resize a portrait. What software to use? Can be done by Photoshop? or what?

TIA

You can do it in Paint. Just go to Attributes and set it to 50 pixels, then re-size the image.

I'm not sure if animations apply to Paint. However you could always get someone like Sleep to resize it.

*Those mods have some uses after all :p *
