I was wondering if someone could help me to figure out how to properly use the "import portrait" thingy while creating a character. It says it uses "Documents/Almost Human/Legend of Grimrock/Portraits" and it must be 128x128 and in TGA format.
Well, I created the above path in my Documents folder, put in a 128x128 TGA picture, yet when I try to "import portrait", it says there are no portraits to find!
I'm running on a Mac.
Can anyone help me to figure out what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

As the linked post mentions, Legend of Grimrock stores everything user related in osX's Application Support folder, not your Documents folder.

Its worth noting that in the latest version of osX (Mountain Lion 10.8.X ) and possibly in Lion (10.7.x) too the Library folder where the Application Support folder is located, is hidden. You can't see or find it by casually browsing within Finder.

When using the latest versions of osX, to get to the folder you need to put your custom portraits and/or find your saved games you need to use Go to Folder... within the Go menu in Finder (shortcut: Command+Shift+G). Then type in:

~/library/

And press Return/Enter

It will open up your user Library folder and let you browse to Application Support/Almost Human/Legend of Grimrock/ folder, where your saves and the Portraits folder are located. This folder is auto generated per user after they run the game once. So if you're playing the game that was installed by another user on the same machine you must run it once before trying to add new portraits or transfer save games.

Excellent. It worked! Thank you very much!
