You need to delete the backround layer and save just the portrait you cut out as a png.
if you are using photoshop after you copy and paste go to the layers section, on mine version 7 it's on the bottom right hand side and right click on backround and select delete layer, you should see your backround looks like a checkerboard, now just save as png. type.
hope thats helps

If you have your portrait already in png format and the dbf editing done, i use bigGUI, and open the .big file of any player, extract the four files into a folder youve created along with the .big file, rename all files to your created playerspkg name. then i use fx edit and open the ebo file from that folder scroll to the bottom and you should see the playerspkg. click on the first letter of the name and then go up to edit and select edit string the first letter should now have a red box around it go ahead and type in your playerpkg, but don't edit the number 1 one at the end after your done hit save and close. next open the fsh file, i use fsx click import find you portrait png file where ever you have it. type in the name of the portrait because you won't see it when you browse for it. when finished hit save and exit. then open bigGUI agian open the plyrprts.big file you should see 4 files select them all and hit delete then import the four files that you renamed to your created playerpkg then hit the rebuild button until the numbers stops changing.
the just drop the playerprtsbig file in your sgm folder.
and i think thats it

First, there was a link to it a i think in 06 patching in one of the picture tutorials, but i don't know if the link is still up, if not google it or try to find another hex editor to edit the ebo, second if you didn't edit the ebo that's could be why the pic mabye didn't show up
