I decided to scrap the previous three portraits I had. Thanks to flysoup for making the new portrait for me.

Domi: I'll be the first to admit that I fall way short of being an artist, plus that I lack any real experience with computer graphics. I did the best (ok, maybe not best, but I tried anyway) I could with a VERY outdated program. I'm generally not one to specifically ask someone to do something for me which is why I never requested an improvement. Volunteers are accepted though.
 As for the color, I'm not sure what you mean by calling the background excessively bright. When I put it next to the original Bioware portraits, it is considerably darker than they are. Perhaps you meant that it is very saturated with color? Or maybe it is your monitor (or mine). Sir-Kill: Thanks for you edit of the portrait. It really does look much, much better. I have no idea about how to properly compress JPGs (although the one I loaded is a BMP) or anything like that, so that would probably explain why it looked so bad. Actually, the portrait looked pretty good to me at 2 AM when I was working on it. The eyes probably weren't working right at the time.  -------------------- "Once the game is over, the king and the pawn go back into the same box." - Italian Proverb
