Display picture

Hi,

When signing-in on the main hotmail page, I notice that my display picture
is not shown although it is shown in the online profile.
Moreover, the picture shown in WLM is not the same as on the online profile.
How can I fix that to get my display picture sync in WLM and in the hotmail
sign-in main page?
Thanks for your help.
Ben

Greetings Ben,

If you use Internet Explorer and have the Windows Live Assistant installed (it does by
default if you just installed using the normal installer), then *sometimes* Messenger and
these Live login screens will be synced. Note that the feature breaks often, especially
you're logging in and out of multiple accounts regularly.

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for your reply.

I use IE8 and I have the Windows Live Assistant installed.

How can I fix this feature so that my dispay picture is shown on the Hotmail
Sign-in main sign-in page?

Thanks for you help.

Hi Ben,

I've looked into this more since you initially mentioned it, and it appears to be a
server-side problem at Microsoft. I have a workaround, but I'm still formulating how best to
deliver it. I'll post shortly with more info.
