No, you just unzip it into a folder called "GM Icon". Within this folder is the .xml, and a folder called "icons". Within the icons folder is a .png. After you've created that directory structure (which you should get by just right-clicking on the original .zip file and selecting "Extract All") you can remove any files named "GM Icon.ext" or "GM Icon.zip". You want to leave it as a folder within the extensions directory so that you can just drag and drop new gm icons into that icons folder.
I guess I should have included instructions.
- Download .zip file into your extensions directory
- Bring up a folder viewer and navigate to your extensions directory
- Right click on .zip and select "Extract All"
- Copy your wanted GM Icon into the "icons" directory within the extracted folder, using the same name name as the existing icon
- Select "Replace GM Token" from the extensions list next time you start your campaign
- Changing the icon within the icons folder in the future will change the token used the next time FG is started with that extension active

I finally figured out my issue. My ZIP program didn't have an "Extract All" option, so I was just letting it extract to the main extension folder itself (so that the xml file was in the extensions folder, with the icon folder there as well). When I let it extract to a folder called "GM Icon" within the extensions folder, everything worked as advertised.
Thanks for the help on this, everyone.Proud Ultimate License Holder

Hi
Thanks for that extension With the new version v3.3.7 this extension does not work anymore, but I am not sure if this is only due to me; wanted to tell write this here, just in case someone wonders what happened
Best,
Kelrugem
EDIT: I guess this is due to the little changes about the gm icons in the chat (the question mark is now the crossed eye), so the gm portrait file seems not to be there anymore (and is not displayed)
EDIT2: Okay, nevermind, it is due to me In some other campaign without extensions it still works For completeness: It does not work with the hero point extension (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...PFRPG-CoC-CnC) ). I try to fix thatLast edited by Kelrugem; December 19th, 2018 at 19:15.

Whoa! TIL you can leave a FG ext folder unzipped for ease of swapping graphics and the program still uses it correctly! Thanks y'all, super helpful.
