Logos for teams with 'accented' characters

Ok,

So I've been trying to get as many logos for the teams in the DB as possible, I've downloaded every logo pack available on TBL, and doing not too bad. The problem I'm running into is team names with 'funny characters'. The first problem I ran in to was a Czech Team HC Rebel Havlickuv Brod. Now the i has an acute accent, the 'c' has a caron accent, and the 'u; has a ring above it. I've tried including the accented characters (using Charater Map) and not including them and it still doens't want show the logo. Another example if the LNAH team Saint-Georges COOL FM 103,5 (which Manimal has placed in the 'UHL' for this db (it is the Nordiques challenge DB for refernce) With this logo I think the comma is throwing things off. Any suggestions? Or has anyone else run into this problem?

Yep. For Orebro in Sweden (umlaut on O). I just spelled it without the umlaut and it worked. I believe for something with an A and umlaut it was ae. Tried oe for Orebro and did not work. Just spelled like in English and it did! SO try that. Hmm...I see you did. I don't know. Look in your photo files of players that work with those accents in names and see what the photo has them coded as...then try that.

If I remember it correctly you can use _ (underscore) instead of accented characters. But I may be wrong :-D
Try using 'HC Rebel Havli_kuv Brod.jpg'. To be precise, it's name is Havlíčkův Brod, so there are three accents. So it should be 'HC Rebel Havl__k_v Brod.jpg'. Maybe it is not the right team for using as example :-D
