I am new to this, but I am a fairly good artist. How would I be able to draw my own character and import it. What size does it have to be and in what format? Do I import it myself or would I have to send it to the DM?

Start->Programs->Fantasy Grounds II->Application Data Folder

There is a folder called Portraits in there.

That folder is where you store all the portraits you can use in the game. They are in PNG format, and are 63x63 pixels. I save mine in 72dpi. You can just put them in there and you'll be able to use them in any game as DM or player. You don't have to send it to the DM, the program does that for you when you connect to a game (the program stores a copy of your character on the DM's computer).

however if you want to draw the entire character and share that with everyone save it as a JPG and email it to the DM, he can then put it into the image folder and share it.
Size wise I aim for 4x6 images.
