try to import your desired portrait to portrait.iff with portrait.cdf, its a same case with dornas, cdf files keep changing the iff files back to original.

You need to use Roster Editor to change the PorttraitID of your MyPlayer to 984 unless I have misunderstood you.

OK Just on a wild hunch, try deleting everything in the "Application Data\2K Sports\NBA 2K13\Cache" folder. DO NOT delete the folder "Cache" itself though I don't think it would be a problem.
Or the "AppData\Roaming\2K Sports\NBA 2K13\Cache" depending on your OS.

I have cleared my cache more than once yes. It does not affect the game except to make the game use current data. I am unsure if 2K does get some problems of this kind (I have never seen any) but I know of other games that clearing the cache forces the game to use current content instead of the cached content. I have never tried to delete the "Cache" folder itself but I would guess the game will create it again but to be on the safe side don't try it. :)

I would guess you are out of luck then. I know last years game there were problems changing your MP portrait, they just would not stick most of the time. It must be some hidden block in the save file that nobody has figured out. At least I am out of ideas, Sorry.
