O.P. Webcam Display pictures
Does anyone know where the pictures are saved, when you take a display picture with your webcam?

RE: Webcam Display pictures
They will likely be where the rest of your display pictures are stored:

%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Messenger\<your email here>\ObjectStore\UserTile

The images in there are stored as .dt2 files which you will need to copy to the desktop or some other directory and rename to .png.

For example:

C:\Users\UserX\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Messenger\wlm_userx@hotmail.com\ObjectStore\UserTile
