Hi,


Pre Mountain Lion it was ~/Library/Images/iChat Recents Pictures


The Recents and Linked options it shows in Mavericks are saved from the Login pic in System Preferences > Users and Groups > Your account > Login pic, the My Card in the Contacts app and the Buddy Lists in Messages.


I have spent some time looking for this combined set of pictures but I can't find it.
