The following display pictures I made for MSN Messenger are available for personal use only. Please don't distribute those display pictures nor link to them on your own site without contacting me. If you put any of the display pictures on your site without my permission, I contact your hosting provider. This might result in your entire site being deleted.

Hi I was wondering how to use your display pictures on msn messenger?

Posted by Rach at 03:10 GMT on 23 June 2005

Hi Joe,

Not that I know, display pictures seem to be limited to 96 by 96 pixels

Hi Rach,

Just today I wrote a tutorial on how to make your own display pictures and the second part explains how to add a picture to MSN Messenger: Make your own display pictures

You can save the display pictures I made via the context menu of the browser (middle mouse button, Save Image As...)

i was wondering how to get a slideshow to work on MSN. I have the folder and everything, but the pictures won't work in a slide show, only individually.

Posted by Megz at 20:30 GMT on 7 June 2006

@Tree Hugger - PNG, JPEG, and GIF are supported, and probably some others (BMP). The image is 96 x 96 pixels when displayed, so it's the best to scale it yourself to 96 by 96 pixels, since then you have more control over the end result.

Hi.. Can anyone tell me how to change my display picture in MSN messenger to slideshow images..

Posted by Yasmin at 08:52 GMT on 20 September 2006

Hi! I see some persons have problems viewing the pictures of other contacts in their list. To view them click on the right side on the two green arrows(one pointing up, and the other pointing down) After you've clicked on it, choose "Show details". Now you see al the pictures!

You can increase the size of your own display picture by installing msn plus and then there's this tool from the plus site for large display pictures.

Out of all the people that I talk to on msn, I can only see about 1/3 of those people's display pictures... the people who's displays I can't see, I instead see the default MSN logo thing.

Posted by Matt at 23:09 GMT on 30 April 2007

Can you please tell me if my contacts can see my display picture if I "appear offline" on msn messenger? Can my contacts see when I sign in even though I am set or default to "appear offline"?

Thank You
