    To please everyone then can't you just make 3 packs then? Seperate BG and IWD packs for the 'pureists' and a combined pack with both for the people who just don't care?

    No. By "PC" I mean "player character," not "personal computer."

    Yes, although 'portraits made easy' is going to be geared toward picking and choosing the portraits you want, not building a massive archive of 200 selectable portraits in-game or anyting like that. With 'portraits made easy,' you'll be able to add 35 custom portraits to the 84 that are in the normal Co8 mod without too much effort. However, once you understand the concept behind how ToEE's portraits work (which hopefully people will after reading the 'portraits made easy' documentation), you will have the knowledge to build your own custom portrait packs to your heart's content.

    See wizgeorge's comment about typing above. I'm not really inclined to put forth all that effort. What if we add an Arcanum pack and a NWN pack and a NWN2 pack down the line? Does that mean we have to make 'bundle' packs of each possible combination of those as well?

    We provide the basics. If you want to take it further from there, that's up to you.

    Ohh, Arcanum portrait pack, shiiiny. Me want. But then you'll also have to add steam power and guns to TOEE :p

    NWN pack could look OK too, although it'd probably be quite bothersome to re-edit into TOEE format.

    I'm going to make a celebrity portrait pack. I want Brock Lesnar as my fighter, Amy Winehouse as my rogue, Billy Graham Sr. as my cleric and Stephen Hawking as my wizard.

    I have Arcanum, I tried in vain to get it working ages ago but failed miserably. Would you like me to pop it open and grab the portraits for you? I'm sure Arcanum has modding tools, I'll hunt around for them and zip up the character art for you when I get some time to do so.
