Hi,
The green surrounded item states it very clearly:-
You are at the wrong place, go to your home folder, then on menu Go hold the Option key and a new menu item "Library" will show up, press it, that will take you to ~/Library (alternately you can use the "Go to folder" option in the Go menu and insert ~/Library) and look for the Messages folder there. You'll see the Attachments file that you can delete and then create the folder called Attachments. That should do it
Since Lion the Library that is inside your Little House Icon folder (Home Folder) has been hidden.
You can use the Go to Folder option in the Go Menu when you have a Finder window open.
An Alternative is to use the Go Menu whilst holding the ALT key down which temporarily shows the Library in the Menu list which you can select.
You then navigate to the Messages folder.
In here should be a folder called Attachments.
After some updates it gets converted to a file.
Recreate a Folder and call it Attachments.
Restart Messages so it can "See" the folder.
