Is there anyway to use The keyring mod without the new character portraits? Or at least have them in addition the the regular U7 ones?

You can delete or rename the "avatar_data.txt" file in the "Keyring/data" folder. It will disable all the new Keyring skins and portraits, and may cause some problems (particularly for the "brown" skins). I have no idea if it will cause any other problems, though.

Any particular reason for not wanting the new portraits?

They graphically compose better with NPC's portraits from BG I suppose

Not that it looks soooo bad now, but still, leaving a choice would simply be nice.

I like them alot but they match alot better with serpent isle than black gate.

They're intended to be in the SI style, yes.

Since we're on the subject, I, too, would like to be able to use the original BG portraits in addition to the new ones. In fact, it'd be nice if you had some sort of tiny installer or whatever that would import the SI portraits if you have both games.
