O.P. Desktop Contacts + A Few Issues + Requests
First I will start off with the visual bug/error:
[Image: msnplusstatus.png]

All the status's look fine except for the last two. As you can see its the same image for blocked no matter what the contacts actual status is. It shows them as Online, except blocked. I have tested this out with a few contacts, and got the same results :P. If there could be a seperate image for the two (offline blocked, and online blocked) that would be great ^__^.

As for the bug I found (think its a bug ^o)), putting a contact on the desktop with a long name usually truncates it with "...". This is fine. However, changing the appearance AFTER the contact is placed on the desktop gets rid of these ...'s. I personally like it that way, just wanted to pont it out :^).

Now for the requests:

1. More customizable desktop contacts. I liked the contacts when they were in square boxes. It would make more sense anyways because most of the stuff in WLM is now square insteaded of rounded like 7.5 was. Perhaps a choice between square and rounded?

2. Backgrounds. Loading an image into the background instead of a solid color. This one is just a thought, and it may not be all that practical.

3. And a really far out request is implementing the contact into the start bar. Kinda like a quick launch button, but with all the same functions it currently has.


Mainly the blocked online/offline image is why I posted, but figured it wouldn't hurt to toss some requests in there ;).

Thanks for reading ^_^.
