"Actor with a blindfold" is not a standard UML icon and AFAIK is not available in EA.

You can however always set an alternate appearance in EA, or use a shapescript to create this icon.

For non-human actors in UML Use Case diagrams I use Rectangle Notation available via the context menu Advanced option for an Actor

Models are great!
Correct models are even greater!

The best way would be to define a stereotype for the actor; it will appear on the use diagram as text
Comments are also a good way to display this kind of thing.
I do not want to know why you need an actor with a blindfold - maybe it is a ninja turtle or something?  Anyways let 10,000 flowers bloom said a famous guy....

I'm sorry I don't understand the problem.

Where did you find this weird icon, and how are you supposed to edit it?
Was it in EA? Do you need to recreate it in EA?

Create a stereotype and give it this shape script

Code: [Select]
decoration blindfold
{
orientation="N";
setfillcolor(getuserbordercolor());
rectangle(-20,80,120,130);
}

You can't. You can upload files and or images to a public hosting site and reference them in the forum.
