Hi!

At this time, Mac Messenger does not have the ability to share directories,
but you can still send individual files between contacts by using the "Send
File" button at the top of the conversation window.

Regarding the display pictures - are your contacts using Mac Messenger, or
Windows Live Messenger?

OK, Thanks. Most of my contacts don't have Macs so they're using Windows Live Messenger. What should I have in order to see their pictures also? Is there a difference between Mac Messenger and Windows Live for Mac?
