<p>Recent icons set via the icon picker (both for contacts and for yourself) are cached at ~/Library/Images/iChat Recent Pictures, and such recent icons are shared with iChat.</p>
<p>Icons should be retrieved automatically from your contacts when you sign on and when contacts change icons. In AIM, exchanging two messages with a contact may be necessary for the icon to be retrieved, depending upon what messaging client the contact is using. On some services getting info on a contact via Get Info may trigger an icon retrieval.</p>

It's easy to rule out both of these by trying a fresh set of preferences.</p>
