Display picture

I have recently downloaded msn messenger, and like the
display picture ability. I notice that these pictures
are similar to those shown on the start menu - the
picture for your account. Does anyone know where on the
computer these account pictures are stored, so that I can
use the same picture for my account and for messenger?

Thanks,

Rachel

Greetings Rachel,

They are stored in:
\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\anumber\UserTile
Where username is your Windows username and anumber is a random number.

You'll also see them as .tmp files (simply rename them to .png to edit/view/copy them
normally).
