Because it lets you see the contacts display pictures instead of the green man icon 8-).

With Show Details on, the green man icon is still there! shaydock asked for DPs instead of the green icon, not as well as. So my original answer still stands - see my earlier link for a patch that's being worked on that will do as shaydock asked.

No... it's not still there... You've had 2 people say it worked, and one say it doesn't... If anything it's a blue man icon because it means you haven't gotten their display picture yet, or they don't have one.

I agree with UTI so does it mean im right? Marky...ok juz joking i get it now..hope the patch comes out soon XD

No he means it there, but its not instead of the green icon its to the left of the icon, but the dp's still show.

Ohh.... I got it... didn't even notice they were still there... that's the only thing (besides saying it in the name) that tells you what their status is... I dunno why they didn't just do it over the DP like last version.... but It's closer to what you wanted than not having it at all.

I was starting to think I was hallucinating for a moment there. :D

I'm keeping an eye out for the patch that NeuralTransmitter is working on, that looks like it'll return things to how I like them. :) The DPs with Show Details on are just too big for my liking.

You must not be keeping your eye out well enough, as he's already released a first version as it's in the thread... :p
