Is the video picture size i receive alterable in any way to make it bigger.
I seem to remember when i used to use Net meeting it could be resized, but i
cant seem to find any such feature in MSN 6.

Also , is there a site that maybe has some example screenshots/movies of
what the quality of the picture should look like

TIA

Greetings,

In MSN Messenger 6, yes it is, simply click the Arrow, then Size, then Large. To see what
I'm referring to, see here:

As for some movies/screenshots of 'actual' use, I haven't seen any in particular -- I'm not
sure if I could enlist anyone for that or not *grin*.

Hi Jonathan,
would i be correct in saying that this is only available when you are
actually in a vid con. and not via the tools settings menu ?
If so that probably explains why i couldn't find it !

Thanks

Hi,

This is only available when using the 'Webcam' function or 'Video Conference' option. You
can't make the display pictures 'larger'.
