I suggest you print it out and read it while you fiddle with the tool. IF you are still having problems then post again and ask specific questions.

O.k. I have it mostly working. Thanks.
Now how do I connect my players pics with my roster so they show up when I play?

There is a text file in the same directory as the exe file. Read this and it should explain what you need to do.

Basically all the pics need to be in their own subdirectories (by race) within the roster directory. Then before starting a game, you need to add the picture refs to the html.

Use Notepad to open the html and add the refs. If you are not sure what to do, I suggest you download a team html from one of the PBEM leagues and open this to see the picture refs - they are at the end of the file.
