for XP, Win2k, NT:
\Documents and Settings\<windows accountname>\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger\<that ID number thingie>\
for 9x (with profiles):
\WINDOWS\Profiles\<windows accountname>\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger
for 9x (without profiles):
\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger
In that directory you'll find 3 subdirectories, one of them is:
* UserTile
you'll find all your display pictures here.
There named like TFR<number>.tmp or TFR<number>.dat
but actually they are just PNG's with the extension renamed...
Oh sorry, misread your post.
The above info is just for your dps, your Contact's dps...
