How to use custom User Account picture

If the Default User Account pictures bored you, this is how you can add any picture you want. The only thing you must remember is that the picture must be approximately squared (width ~ height) and the file format be .bmp (bitmap image).

The folder where you must copy the pictures is:
X:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\Default Pictures, where X: is the letter of the drive where Windows is installed.
