OK. Yes there is a way.
I can take no credit for it ofcourse.
Have you heard of the red User Interface MOD for Uplink yet?

Well it can be downloaded from:
http://www.zaptan.com/uplink

So neway just download that and fo into the /Graphics/Photos/ directory and open the file:

image0.tif

That is the one you would put U're photo in ok? Good.

Is there a way to do this without turning all the buttons RED?

E-mail Zaptan and ask him, he hacked the pics out. See if he can tell you anything.

if you open grpahics.dat with a zip program (eg winzip) you can change the picture like that.

An easier way to do it would be to extract the image0.tff from the .dat file with winzip, put it in the uplink\graphics\photos directory, and ensure its dimensions are 128 x 160. It's what I did, and seems to work fine, leaving the .dat intact - the only problem is that everyone who was missing an image before has your face.
Indeed.

(Don't quote me tho...........)
