    I have been creating custom portraits, making them the right size, and puting them in the portrait folder in BG, some work and some don't. I have checked and they are all the right size and in bitmap format? Any idea why this would happen? I am fairly new at this type of project and any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Have you made sure the names aren't too long?

    How long can they be? I was not aware of a restriction.

    Just look at the names of the portraits that are already there and don't make them any longer then that.

    Filenames of portraits cannot be more than 8 characters and cannot include any spaces.
