Re: Contact pictures

Hi Jonathan,

thanks for your reply. It was the gray-coloured empty buddy icon that I saw.
And yes I'm aware of this new feature of WLM 2009 but it was definitely a
kind of bug, not a problem of settings.
Anyway, I closed WLM this evening and started it again and now it seems that
personal pictures of my contacts are back...

No clue about what happened, maybe I should just restart my computer more
often!!
