The readme says:

Custom Portraits:

The measurements for player portraits are 38X60 pixels for
the smaller portraits (8-bit color runs faster but it can be
up to 24 bit color), and 110X170 pixels for the larger
portraits. To use a custom portrait, place it in the
Portraits directory (in the install directory for the game)
and add an S to the end of the small portrait name and an L
to the end of the large portrait - otherwise the two names
must be identical. The names must be 1-7 letters long,
maximum - so the filename with the S or L added to the end
is no longer than 8 total characters. The portrait files
must be in BMP format.
Im guessing that if you took them off the web they werent .bmps to begin with - people posting large .bmps to the web deserve to be *hurt* for it. Horrid things.

However, any decent graphics package can save as .bmp. You can even use MSpaint to do it, but photoshop does it as well. Just go into save as and chang the file type.
