I was wondering if their is anyway that i could Put a pic on all the Contacts i call the most or the ones saved in the Today Screen. What i mean is like Having a pic of their face instead of just saying the name.
Any ideas?

Use PocketCM, it gives you the pictures that you want, a new intercface adn it's extremly skinnable.
Pocketcm.com
if you are using outlook for you contacts just go down to edit then change photo
if you go in to the contact list...find your contact...and then edit their information, there is a section that says "Picture"...just click on it and choose a picture you want to have show up for that specific contact.
anyone knows how to save the photo attachment from the emails? i DID search and can't find anything about it.
thanks
when you open the picture. Long press on it and the option to save should pop up.
did that but there's no "save" option. i'm trying to save a photo from an email which was sent by an iphone.

Is the pic embedded in the e-mail or just an attachment? When you open it, does it open in the sense picture viewer app?
it is embedded i think, coz it just shows up as the email body.
[bump] still no answers....

If it is embedded in the email you should be able to click and hold and it should give you an option to save down. Are you reading the email through the phone or are you reading it through opera or IE
i'm reading it through the phone
have you tried checking the image properties. It could show the text as one file and the image as another. In which case you should be able to long press on the image file and save.
How and where can I find the pic (file) on my Imago that I have saved for a contact? I did not take the pic with the phone...but it is in there from when I sync. (Outlook) If I try to add a contact pic to another name...It gives me the option to search "all" pics and I do not see the pic I want to save.
None of the pics came over when I activated my new Android...Thunderbold
Thanks.
Hello everyone I have tried searching for this but cant not find it. the one link that I did find returned a dead page.
What I am asking today is in reguards to CyanogenMod 7 and messaging. I text a lot and find it annoying that the "Me" in messages does not have my picture in it. Before I went from stock everything to CM7 I had the ability to edit me contact card and this allowed my pic to display for my messages sent. But now I can not find out how to do. I was told to do Settings > Call Settings > Additional Settings > My Phone Number but I do not see additional settings.
While it is not a big thing it does annoy me as my OCD kicks in and I see received pics of the contact but an android bot as my pic. Can anyone help me out with this.
BTW here was the dead thread link

I'm not sure if this is the right way or what, but it's pretty easy. Just create a new contact using your own phone number. Name the contact 'Me'. Then select a picture of yourself to set as the photo for the 'Me' contact. Save your changes. Your picture should now appear in the text mesaging threads as the Me contact.

I will try this to see if it will work, but that will last till my OCD kicks in when I try to make my contacts look better LOL.
Will post back if it does/does not work.
Edit- Thanks k2buckley that did it. Appreciate the help with that. But having "Me" in my list will bug me in a bit I am sure. Stupid OCD LOL

It should work. I use that method on every AOSP rom I've ever used, because I also hate seeing the blank spot on the 'me' contact. Should work no problem.

My text has my gmail picture....I think I uploaded it to latitude once and it got associated with gmail.
Anyhow, you should be able to add a contact pic to your gmail and it will show up.
My phone also has the same picture in my contacts where I have put all my information for myself. I didn't associate it with this contact, so it must be done through Gmail.

That is how I did it as well. Works great.
Hi,
First if am in wrong forum thread do tell me.
I am using HTC Wildfire on CyanogenMod 7.1.0.1-buzz
All was ok however I had synced last night with my gmail account and suddenly the "ME" has changed.
As in when I go to SMS and send anyone a message. the message shows as "ME".
The ME is showing image of one of my contacts n not me. if I press it for a while it should give me options of "call" "open contact" etc. It opens that person contact not mine.
However all the people are getting messages correctly. Its just in my own message box it is bit awkward to see someone else photo as "ME".
Any ideas?
Sounds like something got confused, have you synced your contacts recently?
Also try just swapping your pics back round just go to edit, then select the pic frame and then pic the correct one
