Some info on MSN Messenger…

When it comes to display images, MSN likes to call them ‘display pictures’ or ‘msn display pictures’. Sometimes people refer to them as msn icons or messenger icons. The MSN Messenger client comes with some default display pictures for you to use such as a dog, a duck, a beach scene. They’re ok but they’re quite limited so we, along with many other people have designed lots more msn display pictures. Each display picture is designed to a high quality for the MSN Messenger 96x96 pixel display picture dimension format.

MSN Messenger 7 was the first version which supported animated display pictures (or animated avatars as some people call them). It makes is so much easier to show how you look or how you feel. We recommend changing your msn display picture to reflect your mood. So if you’re feeling bored at work make sure your display picture shows it. Then if you feel happy because you’ve finished a project that day – find a display picture to show it. We have heaps to choose from. Get funny icons, cool icons, cute icons, love icons – even dollz icons if you’re into dollzmania.

You’ll only find free display pictures for MSN on our site. So if you want a messenger display picture and you want it to be a free msn display picture look no further. These are seriously funny and highly addictive msn icons…you’ve been warned!
