Contact picture not showing in business card but present inside contact details- C#, Outlook 2010, EWS Managed API #221

Contact picture is programmatically loaded for each contact based on email. But for some contacts, the photo does not load in the Business card. It appears as only a box. The picture is present when double clicked on the card to view contact details. I convert the pictures for proper dimensions and then load them as a file attachment.

//buildPath method fetches the file path from the Contact images folder (folderPath + "\" + email + ".png"). Returns the new path depending on the email of user picPath = buildFilePath(email);

FileAttachment picAttach = newcontact.Attachments.AddFileAttachment(picPath); picAttach.IsContactPhoto = true; convertPic(personId, picPath); newcontact.Save();

The picture had to be dimensioned to the business card attributes of width and height. When this dimension is met, the image loads in the business card as well.
