Hi, corn -

If your truck is equipped with MyFord Touch, you can upload photos from a USB or SD card. Photographs with extremely large dimensions (such as 2048 x 1536) may not be compatible and appear as a blank (black) image on the display.

To access, press the Settings icon > Display > Edit Wallpaper, and then
follow the system prompts to upload your photographs.

Only the photograph(s), which meets the following conditions, display:
• Compatible file formats are as follows: .jpg, .gif, .png, .bmp.
• Each file must be 1.5 MB or less.
• Recommended dimensions: 800 x 384.

If you have SYNC with Voice-Activated Navigation, follow these steps:

1. Ensure that you are on the home screen. (Press at the bottom
left of any screen to access.)

2. Touch the left side of the home screen to initiate the left screen
photo display and saved photos screen.

3. Select the ‘Add’ button on the touchscreen. The following
disclaimer will appear, “Please confirm the supported photo
formats”.

4. When the pop-up dialog box with the disclaimer appears, press OK
and ensure that you are using the proper format.

5. Insert a CD-ROM which contains your photos as jpegs.

6. Press OK. The photos will be listed on the right half of the screen.

7. Select either ADD or ADD ALL. The photos are now saved to the hard drive.

Photo display limitations:
• The file must be 1.5MB or less.
• The extension of the file must be one of JPE/JPG/JPEG.
• The CD or DVD must be ISO 9660 format, UDF format is not supported.
• The file path must be 255 characters or less.
• Up to 256 files or folders can be displayed in one folder.
• Not compatible with discs written in Packet Write mode.
• Only the photograph(s) which meet these conditions will be displayed.

Let me know if you have any additional questions.

You do not need my for touch for this. Can be done with regular nav and sync prior to 2013 correct?

That's correct, sluggo1, you can upload one photo to the SYNC with Voice-Activated Navigation system. The pic must come from a CD or DVD.

Follow the steps from this portion of my post:
