Hi!

I'm looking for a little bit of help, here's what I'm trying to do:

I know how to change the picture for a user account and I'm using my own
pictures. However, does anyone know the exact dimensions the pictures needs
to be so that it uses up the whole space. Basically, I want to match the
dimensions of the pictures already on the computer to select from so that I
don't have any remaining empty space.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Maria,

Actually the size of the image doesn't matter, as long as the
height and width are the same. WinXP will then convert the
image to a thumbnail when it is selected and it will fill the box.

Here's the location of the hidden folder the User Account Pictures
are located in:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\
Microsoft\User Account Pictures\Default Pictures
