A system and method for the selection and execution of a profile. The system and method comprise a data store capable of storing profiles, a user console allowing interaction between a user and a multifunction device, a communication interface adapted to allow communication via at least one communication channel and a processor in communication with the communication interface, the data store and the user console. The processor receives a profile from a profile source via the communication interface, stores the received profile in the data store, receives an indicator corresponding to a selected profile and executes the selected profile to perform an operation of the multifunction device.

A method of displaying a visual image includes scaling at least one monochrome digital photograph, scaling at least one non-monochrome icon, and assembling a digital composite display of the at least one scaled monochrome digital photograph and the at least one scaled non-monochrome icon. The digital composite display includes a plurality of monochrome pixel values corresponding to the at least one scaled monochrome digital photograph, and at least one non-monochrome pixel value corresponding to the at least one scaled non-monochrome icon. A composite bitmap is created including a color table having a plurality of color values. Each color value has a plurality of color component intensity values. Each color value corresponds to a respective monochrome pixel value. Selected color values are reserved for non-monochrome colors. Each selected color value is provided with color component intensity values corresponding to a selected non-monochrome pixel value. Monochrome pixel values that correspond to the selected color values reserved for non-monochrome colors are identified. The monochrome pixel values that correspond to the selected color values are changed into other monochrome pixel values that correspond to non-selected color values.
