where in the internet can you download more character voices and portraits. Please reply as i needed a wider range of selection for my characters.

You could go to Baldur's Gate Haven
http://www.baldursgatehaven.com/

They have a Media section with game downloads, characters and portraits.

Best site in my opinion for voices is:

www.blackmagicgames.com/

Download the male Grunter. Its the funniest for me because all he does is grunt like a caveman. Which is perfect for my 19 INT-WIS FMT. You need to download the mp3towav converter from that site also if you don't already have one. I recommend it because its real easy to use. The site also has some good portaits.

Also, try:

www.kirith.com/ for excellent portraits.

There's also a place called the Space Spider, another excellent site:
