Find Address Book contacts without pictures
My post about cleaning up and prettying up your OS X Address Book in preparation for iPhone sparked the following question: is there a way to create a Smart Group of contacts who don't have pictures?
Not a Smart Group, no - but here's a quick bit of AppleScript to do the same:
P.S. Of course, since this is not a Smart Group, you'll have to remove people from it as you add their pictures. Actually, just delete the whole group and start over whenever you run this - otherwise you'll have multiple "No Pictures" groups.

tell application "Address Book"
set theGroup to make new group with properties {name:"No Pictures"}
repeat with x from 1 to the count of people
set thePerson to person x
if not (the image of thePerson exists) then
add thePerson to theGroup
end if
end repeat
save addressbook
end tell
