O.P. Huh?  Sending files in MSN Messenger/Question
Each time I send files in MSN to a contact by pressing "Send Files" in the convo window I have to browse from a default location (usually "My Documents") to the place where the file is located (for example a picture in "My Pictures"). This is inconvenient if I want to send many pictures and need to browse for each of them. Is here a way to have MSN go to the desired location directly?

No unforunately this is how it was created. With the latest version of MSN Messenger (Windows Live Messenger) you will be able to create sharing folders and store all your images in there so your contacts can download them. Alternately drag and drop the files into the conversation. Note you can only send a maximum of 3 simultaneously.

Sorry for the late post.

open my computer, find the location of the files, select all the ones you want to send, copy, then paste into the convo window, but they can only send 3 at a time
or just zip the files up?

Note that you can still use the old method of transferring files - "file transfer" instead of sharing folders. There are a few reasons why you might not beable to use Sharing Folders. If your computer is using the FAT32 file system you cannot use sharing folders. Also some patches for WLM will also disable the sharing folders feature.

Patchou probably won't add it to Plus!, as TB will probably want to add it to StuffPlug 3. It was in the old StuffPlug-NG after all.
