Do you mean importing your picture on the player info screen?  You can
put a 24-bit BMP file in the Nascar4/exports folder and it will be
available by the "import picture" option.

If your talking about the paintshop, I'm not sure.  There is an "import
decal" option but I've never used it.  I would think a 24-bit BMP file
in the exports folder would allow you to import it via the "import
decal" option.

Jason, Does the 24-bit BMP file have to be a certain size? 'i.e. 244x440
etc..
like in GPL & also color is ok, right? {I wanna put a Sesame photo in it!
lol}
Tia.....Cheers Thom_j.

I loaded a huge picture and it took up most of the screen :)  I don't
know the exact size that will fit in the photo box, so just do a few
different sizes and import each until you can get an idea of what is the
perfect size.

Color.  We're talking 24-bit color so go wild :)

Hold the mouse pointer over "load photo" and it tells you how big it should
be.

Just right click on the area where you want to put the picture in N4: it
will give you info regarding the size and the file format (.bmp).
