Portrait packs

Anyone know of any proper BG:EE high resolution portrait packs? All the ones I've seen so far are either the wrong resolution/format or are just old portraits upscaled to the right rez which just look awful.

    I could put one, but you have to show me place where I can easily upload it.

    I can see one pack in that thread ( http://www.usspsamathe.site40.net/Images/Other/Portraits.zip ), it's very good but doesn't quite have what I'm looking for.

    Did you check out the dropbox account? Theres a huge amount of packs up there.
    EDIT: Read the first post of the thread I linked to

    Ok, I'm having some trouble with this forum, when I access threads I don't get the buttons to switch between pages, I only view one page. I have found the first page of that thread and I'm trying to sort out this Dropbox crap. Seems overly complicated, and also not very secure (directly downloading stuff of someone else's computer = good way to get infected with viruses?).

    Its not that difficult, you can go to the dropbox site and login with the username and password given in the thread. Then download the different portrait packs.
    The dropbox is actually in the cloud, so you're downloading from some server not someone elses PC directly.

    As for the forum problems, is it possible that you are using some old browser?

    Ah ok, and presumably the dropbox cloud has virus protection of some sort? If that's the case then I imagine it's secure.

    Looking through them now, a bit hit and miss but not bad so far.

    I'm using Chrome, admittedly I haven't updated in a while (doesnt Chrome automatically update though?).

    Well might be some small chance to get viruses(as with any download), but as far as I know there are no viruses in image files ( might be wrong about that). Anyway, I downloaded all the portraits from there myself a few days ago and had no problems with them.

    Hmm I don't think chrome does autoupdate, you could check out the main site to see whats the latest version there and compare to yours to be sure.

    Ok maybe I will do that.

    Found some decent portraits, thanks for the help guys.
