I don't know anyway of finding the picture, try searching for all of the images on your computer or something, if you don't have too many that is, or think of something you may have called it?

*drive*/documents and settings/user/application data/microsoft/msn messenger/(weird number for each user)/usertile/(here all files are .dat, copy them somewhere, and rename to .png :)

http://www.m00.cx/misc/msgrid.php to find the number

then

Start > Run > CMD /C Explorer "C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger"

Open up the folder named after that number you got above, then go into Usertiles

You should see a bunch of .dat files, they are actually PNGs so you can simply rename them to check them.

thx shawnZ i've already found the number, but know i need the photo in it's original size not as i found it there:)

RE: Lost photo, i only can find it in DP by ShawnZ on 08-10-2005 at 09:52 PM

Odd... MSN Messenger should have left those files the same size... Oh well, good luck finding it then :)
