How To Change The User Account Picture
Hi there,
Our boss approached me with a unique request: Each user must have their picture on the Welcome screen. I already added their pictures on Exchange for Outlook 2010 users, but I have no idea how to add a different picture for each user.
Do you guys know how to do it via GPO or script... Or maybe some tool.
My domain controllers are Win 2k8 and Win 7 on the workstations.
Thanks.

Hello,
This is possible and also very straightforward. Please see the following Microsoft guide:

There are also many links on there with Useful Windows 7 personalisation tips.
What is the size of the network and is it a single domain?

We have about 100 users and it's a single domain.

This link is to choose the picture by control painel on the workstation. I need to do it via GPO or script to do it on all users.
ney_santos--Each user is to have his own personal picture????
ASKER
That's right jcimarron. Each user must have his own picture on the welcome screen and start menu top.
ney_santos--As I mentioned earlier, I cannot provide script. While that can perhaps be developed, I would think each user would still have to provide his/her picture and put it into a designated location for the script to pick up.
Good luck.
