It seems to me that i get more PMs about how to attach Icons to Careers, So i'm just going to write a turtorial on it. Images do have a specific size, type, and to some creators look. The siz of an image CAN be varied, and all of mine are different. If you want an exact size, then just extract the maxis defaualt and edit it to your liking. Now, after you have edited your image, save it in one of these filetypes: JPG, PNG, TGA* These are the ones that the game will read.
Now, in sim PE, go to the images in the resource tree.




Click on all of the images one at a time and hit "Replace"




Use The File you edited as the icon and your set! Just commit the changes and you should be good to go!

* I'm not sure about this format, but i believe that it works.

Life is not measured by how many breaths you take, it is measured by the moments that take our breath away.

How do you link the icon to the career reward? After following the steps above my icon shows up in the game, but not with my custom reward (in the rewards panel). My custom reward is a cloned item of an in-game object.
