Yes, it is designed to be "automatic" when used with the MLB2008 Roster file that ships with the game. Please look at the parks.dat file in your .lg folder, right click and select properties, and let me know what the "last modified date/time" is. The time stamp should be 12:20AM.

To test just now, emptied out my ballparks folder, loaded up OOTP9 and started a new MLB2008 game. I quit OOTP9, went to the desktop and re-downloaded the ballpark mod from my website. I opened the zip file and copied the parks.dat file into my saved .lg folder, and put the photos in the ballparks directory. I relaunched OOTP9, put myself in Commissioner mode so I can view/edit the ballparks and each team is good to go with the custom picture and all associated data. I'm not sure why it's not working for you.

For what's it's worth, I run the game in the default windowed mode when creating Mod files, but I don't think it matters.
