Convert it to a .jpg file; and if that doesn't work the only thing I might suggest doing is renaming the file to story.jpg. That seems to work for me.

RE: Special pictures for a custom story

Silly question, did you back out to the main menu and click custom stories? It needs to refresh when you make a change. Did you change the name of the file and the text in the .cfg as well?

RE: Special pictures for a custom story

Just a question, is that everything in your .cfg file?

Did you just change the file to .jpg or did you save it as a jpeg file?
