Showing pictures from the picture folder in a menu

Okay, I have face graphics for my characters in the /Pictures folder. How do I go in and edit the menu so it will show the pictures instead of the character set? (Note, my pictures are the following: character_set_filename + "_Face.png")
 
In Window_Base, find:

Code:
  def draw_actor_graphic(actor, x, y)
    bitmap = RPG::Cache.character(actor.character_name, actor.character_hue)
    cw = bitmap.width / 4
    ch = bitmap.height / 4
    src_rect = Rect.new(0, 0, cw, ch)
    self.contents.blt(x - cw / 2, y - ch, bitmap, src_rect)
  end

And replace it with:

Code:
  def draw_actor_graphic(actor, x, y)
    bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture(actor.character_name + "_Face")
    cw = bitmap.width
    ch = bitmap.height
    src_rect = Rect.new(0, 0, cw, ch)
    self.contents.blt(x - cw / 2, y - ch, bitmap, src_rect)
  end
