Are you original and/or do you have a driving need to create a character portrait to maximize total immersion? Now you can share those custom portraits with the world via the magic of the internet!

Post your PC's custom portrait here. That way if people can't see your portrait and just see the generic stupid ghost person it's their own damn fault!

Hi everyone,
Here's Sarenna's portrait. It's a slightly photoshopped picture of Emmanuelle Zoldan, the lead singer of the band Sirenia, which was my original idea for Sarenna's name, and consequently how I found her picture. Believe it or not, Emmanuelle is a dead ringer for the image of Sarenna I had in my head. Sweet synarchy! Sometimes the puzzle pieces almost fit together by themselves.

Also, for those of you who might not know, here's a short description I found of how to quickly convert a jpeg to all the portrait files you need for NWN:

Creating a Portrait: Conversion - The fastest method for creating a new portrait for your character is by converting a standard .jpg image. This does not produce the best quality portrait images, but is, by far, the quickest.

1) Place a .jpg (for example, "myportrait.jpg") into your NWN/portraits directory (usually C:\NeverwinterNights\NWN\portraits\).
2) Start NWN, start a new game or load a saved one.
3) Enter the console command "ConvertPortrait" followed by the name of your image without the file extension.
- - (for example, "ConvertPortrait myportrait"). This will automatically create all the different files needed.

Cheers, Peter
