User Profile picture

Question

User Profile picture

Does anybody knows where you can locate the picture you took while you were setting up the user profile? I looked everywhere, I found all the icons that you can us as your profile image, but I couldn't find the picture that I am using that was taken during setup process.

Thanks.

Mac Pro 15, Core i7, Mac OS X (10.6.3)

This can be tricky, but have you tried:
~/Library/Images/iChat Recent Pictures
or
~/Pictures/Photo Booth

Yes, I looked under Pictures/Photo Booth etc. There is no picture recorded. By the way, there is no longer an "images" folder under Library.

Interesting. I just verified that the Photo Booth picture I took when I first booted up my machine and logged in is indeed under ~/Pictures/Photo\ Booth .

By the way, there is no longer an "images" folder under Library.

Interesting again, as this folder exists for me, and it contains the icons I have used as my iChat avatar and for my account login.

well, "images" folder does exist on my iMac which was updated from Tiger. I just checked again, there isn't "images" folder under Library on this new Macbook Pro. There is "Pictures" on the same level as "library", there is Photo Booth under that... but my avatar is nowhere to find.
