Adding Background Images?

I'm trying to add some background images of my fav team to the game for my own use (the quality is too bad, for Blueline use). So how do I do that? I have the files saved in the Data/pictures folder, at 800x600 resolution, but they are all as "JPEG images" not "EHB files", like the others are, so I can't get them to show on my game.
I have added .ehb on all file names and edited the .cfg file, but still can't see my fav team on the background.
Can anyone help a stupid noob?

It's perfectly fine for them to be .jpg files so you can leave them with that extension (not sure whether .jpeg will work, though - just change the extension to .jpg).
The pics should go in the data/pictures folder.
You should then edit pics.cfg and, assuming you want them to show up when you view the team's roster and so on, you go to the section called [CLUBS] and then add a line below this saying:
team long name: filename1.jpg, filename2.jpg
etc, etc.
I'm not sure whether the filenames can have spaces in them and so i would replace any spaces with underscores.
My article on backgrounds may be of some use:

What team are you adding the pics for?

Yes, thanks alot.
It doesn't seem to work in my old save though. The pics only show if I start a new game...
Edit: No, wait! Now they show up in my old save as well...
Wopee!

How do you do this for EHM 2005? Is it the same? I cannot find the 'edit pics.cfg ' file..

I'm afraid it's not possible.

Take a look at my post in this thread:
