Instructions:

For the Stand alone patches - Extract the exe file into the target directory and run it. Click on the "Patch Database Button." Once its complete, you can delete the exe file. For the .hdb files - Start the Highlander.exe program. Select "Apply DB Patch." Follow the instructions that show up.

Images:
All images (for printed cards, not mle) that I currently have came from Here. To get them to show up in the program, create directories for each set, and download the images into those directories. The directories need to be in the same folder as the Highlander.exe file and need to have the same name as the expansion set Abbreviation used by the program (for example: If you installed the program into the directory c:\Program Files\Highlander\, then the directory for the watcher chronicle cards should be c:\Program Files\Highlander\wc). When downloading the cards, use the same file names that are used on that site as those are the ones that are in the database (you can change the names in the database if you want to use different ones).
MLE Card Images:
Same instructions as above for determining the location for the different cards, however file names for mle cards are not included in the database. In order to enter them in run the program and select view Collection. Under there there is a field called File Name. You can enter the names for the individual cards here. You can also open the database in Access 2002.
