No easy way

There's no easy way to do this as the extension is expecting to look outside the profile directory... hence the full path. The only possible fix I can think of (without rewriting the launcher for one extension... which won't happen) is to place your pictures as a subdirectory of the directory containing thunderbird.exe. Say photos. And then using a resource://photos in the extension settings. If that doesn't work, you're out of luck.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
