Vista - Pictures in Contacts

When I add pictures to my contacts list, there is always a hi lighted upper
portion, the same as the original default icon. Is there any way to simply
have a clean picture in there, without the hi light? Thank you.

Have you had any luck finding an answer to this anywhere? I had the same
question. It is annoying not being able to see the pictures clearly. I have
the same problem with the pictures used for users at logon. Thanks.

No, I have not found any answer. I think it is a default setting that cannot
be changed. I am going to try to send the item to Microsoft.

Hewlet Packard support tells me this is the default setting and cannot be
changed. I asked them to ask Micro soft to change it when next they update
the program.

Rolf, Thanks for the update on your efforts. I won't hold my breath waiting
for MS to fix this.
