This is great! I understand you might not be working on this anymore, just shooting my shot here...
Is it possible to display the battle log display text over pictures? Right now they're disappearing behind pictures, and pictures happens to be an integral part in my battle system!

You could try raising the Z value of the window.
In the battle log script line 21 add in after that a self.z = 300
Then it should be above the pictures, if not increase the number

I tried this... even put self.z = 9999 and it still didn't show up above the pictures...

Then you needd to tell us what you're doing to make those pictures?
Is it the battlers? Custom background?

The pictures are like an overlay in the battle scene, think borders on the top and bottom Im using pictue 4, 5, 6, 7 if that's of any help?

Ok tested it with pictures and saw the issue.
So remove the self.z thing and add this below those two scripts.

class Scene_Battle < Scene_Base
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Create All Windows
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  alias r2_log_view_for_pictures  create_all_windows
  def create_all_windows
    r2_log_view_for_pictures
    create_log_viewport
  end
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Create Information Display Viewport
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def create_log_viewport
    @log_viewport = Viewport.new
    @log_viewport.z = 100
    @log_window.viewport = @log_viewport
  end
end
