You might have already tried this but this is what I found out:

The portraits go here:

C:\Users\[YOUR USER NAME]\My Documents\Almost Human\Legend of Grimrock\Portraits

You have to be patched to version 1.1.4

The portraits should be 24-bit, 128x128 pixels, UNCOMPRESSED .TGA format. If everything else is fine, double check the compression; that's usually what bit me.
16 bit and 32 bit MIGHT work, not sure.

Online image converters can cause problems apparently. Photoshop or Paint.net should work.

If you still can get them to work, try checking the forums here:

BTW, I have 230 odd custom portraits that I made for NWN2 that you can try downloading. Here's the link:

http://www.thieves-guild.net/index.p...n_view&idev=13

All of those are 128x128 24bit uncompressed Targa (,tga) format so they SHOULD work in Grimrock. You might test one or two of them out just to see.
