you need to have cupash to make the CSS portraits, so it doesn't actually go in the SD card. It's usually pretty complex, so you should wait a while until your aquainted with hacking. But you should look up cupash and some cupash guides.

sorry, what I mean is when you get aquainted with hacking and modding your wii

or you could just download cupash along with some illegal files, place it on your computer, place the .tga's in the correct folder, run cupash accordingly and place the newly made files into the correct folders of your SD card... that's basically how it works.

Here's a link to a good youtube video: [MeowMix Guides] CUPASH CSP Character Selection Portraits

They go exactly where the texture .pcs and pacs go, they're just named fitXXXeffects or something like that.

so just because I don't feel like looking up the entire name of the file, I'm suddenly wrong about where it's placed? I just wanted to make sure AibanSama didn't try to rename it as one of the texture colors. That's all.

It's ok...

If you got Cupash already, you put it in the new files folder and run Cupash after you've extracted all of the original TGAs

If you're talking about your new .pac file, you place the folders created in the new files folder into PF
