Imagine you have 80 contacts online right now... I bet you can't see them all at one time as well, with or without these display pictures in front of their names... 8-)

My point was it will make the contact list look stupidly cluttered.
I mean in your picture you have only 7 contacts shown and its alredy filled the space.

How about having an option to turn "display pictures in buddylist" on or off? :) Then everybody would be happy... ;)

Or you could have smaller pictures, but then it may still too big or the pictures will be unclear

I don't recall the size of the display pictures on the popups of MSN 7, but are they smaller then the one in my example picture? If so, that also might be a good size to use... :)

I wouldn't use it if it was made it would make MSN seem stupid, too big and untidy and why when you already have the contact cards are you too lazy to move the mouse a tiny bit? Plus Patchou is already busy making new stuff for plus!.

That's why I put "Wish for the next MsgPlus" in the topic's name... ;) It's just a suggestion for a new feature, if Patchou likes it and wants to add it... :)

oh, I've spent all day reshacking messenger and reading messenger plus! plugin API documentation, but I don't know how to do it so far... :(
Any ideas?
I can't wait for the final release!!! and... if patchou wouldn't implement that function... :(

Well, Patchou did make it possible for people to show both colors and emoticons in the buddylist, but I don't know if he developed an API to control what's in the buddylist yourself?

Edit: this is what I mean:

Does anybody know if it is possible to hook this list element, so we can try to build something ourself? :)
