after 3 succesful seasons, my picture is gone :( somehow it became a silotte

how do i change it back ?
 
this link explains how to do it,ull need to do it manualy >> http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/210196-Guide-How-to-add-a-Manager-Picture-in-FM2010

btw: it says for fm10 but works for fm11 as i needed to do it aswell when my pic dissapeared while bk

basicly u need to create a file called manager in documents/SI/FM11/graphics then put ur chosen manager pic in there and make a config file using notepad,copy and paste the config below into notepad and change the bit highlighted in red below to ur name and birthdate tht u 1st started ur save game with ie:joe blogs 25-3 then save the file as config.xml and put it into the manager file u created wid ya pic should work then click reload skin when in game

<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">
<record from="manager" to="graphics/pictures/person/your name + birth date here/portrait"/>
</list>
</record>


as an example the bottom part should read something like:

<list id="maps">
<record from="manager" to="graphics/pictures/person/joe blogs 25-3/portrait"/>
</list>
</record>

Errrm, is it the same for Mac? Because I've tried all various configurations and it still isn't working. I even tried the Unique ID thing, still not working. Is it because I have a Logo/Flags/Kits graphic addition? Underneath my Football Manager 2011/graphics folder, there is a Kits folder and a Pictures (for logo/flags) folder. Where should my Manager folder be?
 
not sure on the mac,never used one im not a fan of them,your manager picture should be in documents/Sports interactive/graphics/manager (if you havent got a graphics folder then create one,same goes with the manager folder create it) you should also have a config xml file in the manager folder along side the manager pic
 
Got it. But still no photo. Can it be due to the skin? I've tried changing but still the same actually.
 
hmmm wierd :S all i can suggest is take a look at this link,start at no2 manualy adding a manager picture,theres 2 ways of doing it with the code,its where i got my info from for this thread,btw the link says its for fm 10 but it works just the same for fm 11,it worked for me and has been ok ever since and it worked for one united >http://sites.google.com/site/michaeltmurrayuk/index-guides/howtoaddmanagerpicture

Guess it's just a Mac. Doesn't comply with the Windows version. But surprisingly, logos/kits work easily. Until someone with a Mac comes up with the solution, I guess I'm stuck. Thanks Dazzy D for trying your best.
