Why can't I see my contacts' pictures?

I'm running the latest live messenger. I've repeatedly clicked on show my
contacts' pictures and nothing happens. What's going on? Can anyone help me?

Greetings,

Where exactly can't you see them? In your contact list? In the conversation windows? In
contact cards? or all of the above?

I can't see my contacts' mug shots in the main live messenger window. none
of them. i could before i upgraded. no idea why. i've looked all through the
options and checked the 'view others pictures'.....

Greetings,

If you were using 7.x before, the functionality to see small thumbnails of the display
pictures in the contact list has been removed.

You can however see the large versions by opening the main contact list, then click the "Sort
your contacts" icon which looks like two arrows to the right of the 'Find a contact or
number' field. Then choose Show Contacts' Details.
