Steps to follow

  • Prepare a readable PNG with strong contrast.
  • Place it in AppData/LocalLow/Hovgaard Games/Big Ambitions/CustomIcons.
  • Open the business in BizMan and enter logo customization.
  • Refresh the file list, select the image, and save.
  • If it does not appear, recheck format, save state, and restart the game.
