I'm using Gmail through Outlook on my PC. Currently WMDC/ActiveSync keeps my Outlook Contacts and Calendar synchronized with my WM phone, and my phone gets emails from Gmail/Google.

I'd like to keep my Outlook Contacts and Calendar synchronized with Gmail/Google, so that they will in turn sync with Android on my phone. I assume that Google Sync will do this, but will it also sync Contact pictures? If not, how can I do this?

Now that I've tried looking for Google Sync for my Outlook Contacts, all I can find is one that syncs the Outlook Calendar. Could you or someone post a link to the Google Sync you used? One that will sync my PC's Outlook Contacts and contact photos with Gmail's Contacts.

I've found a few programs by other people that claim to work, but I'd like to stick with an "official" Google app, if there is one.

Just export your outlook contacts to a .csv and then import them into your gmail.

Granted, that will transfer them, but it won't transfer the contact pictures, and it's a one time deal. I want to keep Outlook and Gmail and contact pictures in sync with each other, so that a change in one will be reflected in the other, like WMDC/ActiveSync do now between Outlook and WM.

How are you using Google sync? Did you set it up to exchange through "active sync", if you did then it should sync the pictures as well.
If you need directions on how to do that, just post here and I will reply.
