How do I convert pictures in to HMBA sized icons Please ? - I know this sounds a strange question :o - I have a couple of canon pics that I want to 'convert' so I can add then to HMBA so that the 'new' icon can be added to the Record Sheet, when I print out.

These Pictures are on the new designs in RS3085 Old is the New New - Grey Death Heavy, Nighthawk MK. XXX & Nighthawk MK. XXX (Bounty Hunter) suits, and I have the pictures used so it would be nice for me to know if I can convert these pic using Windows Paint.

Thanks for the Help in Advance.

Dave.

Well, you can just use them as a picture and place them in the same spot as where the icon goes. :)

HMBA uses a built-in font for most of the standard icons, but also GIF files, which are placed in the HM\BA\Symbols folder. Look there, and you'll see the size and shape that work out well. They can be bigger (but you won't see the difference) or smaller (but they may not be quite as clear). Just put your GIF files in there, and you can select them.
