By default, GPL displays an image of a ghostly anonymous driver in the Player selection menu and the Newspaper that's displayed at the end of the race. You can over-ride this anonymous image by placing a bitmap image in your Player folder. This image should be 105x124 in size and should be 24 bits in color depth, and must be named player.bmp. 

For example, I'd place an image of me in the following location:

C:\SIERRA\gpl\players\Hine__Alison\player.bmp

Now, your image will be displayed in the Player selection menu and also on the Newspaper whenever you win a race.

Also, you can over-ride the default image displayed for all players on the Player selection menu by placing an image of similar dimensions in GPL's layout folder. 

For example, I'd place an image in the following location:

C:\SIERRA\gpl\layout\player01.pbf

I believe that this must be a Papyrus PBF file. You can download a utility called WinMip that will convert standard graphics files to PBF format from several of the sites on my GPL Links page. 

Thanks to Randy Cassidy for the image of the kitty in a helmet.  I don't recall where I got the other image; my apologies!
