RTB Development
ShadowZero:
Can you add a function to upload your own avatar to the friends list and be able to toggle it?For the irc chat and friend system.
Ephialtes:
The icons are 16x16 for the friends list (like most IM programs) and I don't think you'd be able to anything interesting with 256 pixels. Not to mention you'd then have to download the avatar for each friend which just ups the loading time.
M:
You could make it download avatars of a fairly standard size (say, 128x128) only in the chat with that person, and you could do it from external servers by just tracking the image url so they don't even have to upload to RTB. Just have it check the size of the image when they try to set it, so they can't set larger/smaller images, and it could download the image when you open the chat with them (until it's downloaded, just show a 'blank/no avatar' image, or a loading image).
Of course that's useless and superfluous, but it would be nice to have.
Ephialtes:
Letting people insert their ugly pictures into my lovely GUIs makes them not so lovely anymore. It's also why we don't allow custom avatars on the RTB forums.
Anyway this talk of avatars in the IM system is fruitless so if anyone has any questions regarding other proposed features, let's have them.
Jaydee:
Saves Transfer and Screenshot Transfer would be nice.
