You need to go into your graphics folder, create a folder titled Me.

Post your picture in there with your unique ID as title (see preferences in game)

Then copy this and paste it in notepad

<record> <!-- resource manager options --> <!-- dont preload anything in this folder --> <boolean id="preload" value="false"/> <!-- turn off auto mapping --> <boolean id="amap" value="false"/> <!-- logo mappings --> <!-- the following XML maps pictures inside this folder into other positions in the resource system, which allows this folder to be dropped into any place in the graphics folder and still have the game pick up the graphics files from the correct places --> <list id="maps"> <!-- Auto generated by fmXML --> <record from="2062100191" to="graphics/pictures/person/2062100191/portrait"/> </list> </record>

where ever you see a list of numbers (unique id in bold) replace them with your own numbers. Then save this notepad file to your "me" folder. Bam, you'll have your picture and it'll never vanish (unless you start a new game in which your Unique ID may change)

Save this notepad as config.xml.
And have your photo (180x180.png) saved as the same as the bolded number ie. 2062100191.png in your graphics/faces folder, and this tip works an absolute treat! Great post thanks!

Just remember the bolded number should match your managers exact unique ID number (preferences>graphics to enable this being displayed)
 
steps worked like a charm

Very easy to do. Just make sure the notepad file is called config.xml and you'll be set
