Character portrait from images already uploaded

I'm not sure if this is possible and I'm just missing it--is there any way to set a new character journal entry to use a portrait I've already uploaded in the past? There have been some cases where I wanted to just go ahead and use the same image for two characters (they were similar enough I didn't want to bother looking for a new image, and weren't appearing at the same section of the game, so no confusion), but all I could figure out to do was upload the same image again, which obviously takes up space for two copies of the same image. Is there a way to tell Roll20 to just use one of the images from my library?

Yes, go to the Art Library tab, search for the desired image, then drop the image onto the Character portrait box.

You can drag items out of the Art Library tab once you've done a search and drop them into the portrait/avatar field on your character sheet. The Art Library tab's search will find items that you've uploaded and filter them at the top of the results (it will say "From Your Library"). To make it easier, you may want to give those portraits a unique tag so that when you do the search, those are the results that come up. EDIT: As usual, Gauss's ninja speed beat me to it. :)
O_O Holy heck. How did I not just try that? O_O I'm an idiot. Thank you!

Don't feel bad, that always confuses me too & has been asked several times on the forums. Here is a Suggestion in the Suggestion forum that needs your Votes-Up to get noticed , it's on the last page of Suggestions forum currently (can be bumped up with more user votes) & is requesting some "idiot-proof" verbiage so that this ability becomes more obvious in the user interface.
