Why must this be a Messenger Plus! plugin????? First of all you have limitations in what you can do with a Plus! plugin. Second of all, Messenger Plus! isn't needed at all for this kind of stuff, heck even MSN Messenger itself isn't strictly needed. What I want to say is, if you want something like this, make it into a standalone (skinning) kind of tool or at most make it into an addon for msn messenger.

Either way, the tool/plugin/addon will be nothing more then a browser with an added option to copy the image to msn messenger as a background. And where do you want to browse for these pictures? In other words you might as well use your normal browser and save the images you like as usual.

This is, looked at it at a distance, a nice example of an useless plugin which, intead of being convenient, will actually limit the user of what he can do. (I'm not saying the idea is useless, idea's are never useless, but if you think about it further it will be useless to make something for it)
