Some things I think would be the same as the Droid.

Contacts, select contact, menu button, edit contact. Press on the picture symbol and it goes to the gallery.

If it's different on the Incredible, sorry, just trying to be helpful.

The favorite widget uses the same picture as the one you chose in people. To select a photo for someone in people click on the photo frame icon next to where you edit your contact's name.

A good alternate way to do this, if you don't happen to have the picture on your phone, is to add the picture to your contact on your PC. Log into your Gmail account on your PC and you can edit your contacts there as well as on your phone.

Just tried it, and it worked... kind of. It updates the picture in your actual phone contact list, but it doesn't refresh the widget for some reason. It will show up in the widget though if you remove the widget from your screen, and then add it again.

How is everyone's experience with adding contact pictures locally to the phone, and then making/receiving calls with contact pictures? The last time I tried to do it, the pictures that showed up after making/receiving a call were a blurry, pixelated mess.
