How can I make my own portrait? I used to know but I forgot.

You can download a portrait in any link at the site http://www.planetbaldursgate.com .... bla, bla, bla...

Save your portraits in the folder ....\bgii\portraits\

After that, start the game, load your saved game and enter the "record" screen.

There will be a button (forgot the name) that allows you to modify your portrait...

That's all.

PS: Are you brasilian to? (Escrever em inglês cansa...)

It needs to be a certain kind of file, a certain size, and named in a certain way. Let me find a website or three... http://www.geocities.com/drizzt_darkelf2001/ http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/baldurs ... aits.shtml

Taken from Drizzt's Portraits: "The measurements for player portraits are 38X60 pixels for the smaller portraits (8-bit color runs faster but it can be up to 24 bit color), and 110X170 pixels for the larger portraits. To use a custom portrait, place it in the Portraits directory (in the install directory for the game) and add an S to the end of the small portrait name and an L to the end of the large portrait - otherwise the two names must be identical. The names must be 1-7 letters long, maximum - so the filename with the S or L added to the end is no longer than 8 total characters. The portrait files must be in BMP format.
For example:
XXXXXXXS.bmp for small (38x60, 8-bit)
XXXXXXXL.bmp for large (110x170, 24-bit)

For multiplayer, each player must have a copy of the portraits, otherwise they will see a blank icon instead of the other player's custom portraits. You will need to manually send these portraits to your friends as BG2 has no method of transferring them."

There is a lot of sites with custom portraits. I heard of one that starts with an "K", something. Has some sweet modified photos of Jahera and Aerie. And other NPC's.

The site is Kirith, great portraits.
My Portrait question is this, Can I modifiy the portraits of NPC in the game to custom NPC portraits.
