OBIEE Adding custom image in Conditional Column Format

My main inspiration for this article is based on the reply of Daniel (green4X) in this OTN entry: http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=921926

Step 1: Locate the {OracleBI}\web\app\res\s_{StyleName}\meters folder and create a subfolder called CompagnyImages (or whatever other name you like!)

Step 2:

In the CompagnyImages Folder create a subfolder called images (or whatever other name you like!)

Step 3:

Put all the image you want to use in the images folder, they can any web recognized format (jpg, gif, png….)

Step 4:

Go back to your CompagnyImages Folder and add a index.gif picture, as far asa I know this has to be a gif (lowercase). This will be the “category” in the conditional format selector:

Step 5:

If you are using OC4J_BI sync the folder {OracleBI}\web\app\res\s_{StyleName}\meters the one in {OracleBI}\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\res\s_{StyleName}\meters

Step 6:

Restart the presentation server and the application server (OC4J)

Step 7:

Test it by creating a simple report:
