O.P. RE: Filetransfer status in the chatwindow
Are there more ideas on what the status should show?
As the example posted by elliot, that's a good start!

For advanced features... let's hear some ideas like,
-speed,
-total bytes (remaining)
-total time (remaining),
-pause/resume,
-breaking the max. 3 transfers limit
-mp3 or jpg or mpg or bmp preview

etc.

keep it coming :P(Y)

P.S.
Let's hope Patchou can make our dreams com true..... lol

Actually I did suggest this 6 months ago or so. :p
I, too, find it very annoying sometimes that transfers can't be followed easily (and resumed). I sent the suggestion to Microsofts development team (they have a form on their website for user suggestions), but they didn't respond to it. I even included a nice little home-made screenshot of how I'd like the system to be. :) I haven't been able to dig it up for this post, though. It pretty much resembled elliot's. :)

RE: Filetransfer status in the chatwindow
seems like a great idea, only a pain in the a** to implement (the display of the file transfers in the dialog box), i've asked around and the resuming of file transfers is quite possible (even pathou said so) but the others is kinda hard.

p.s.  there is already a thread in the forums relating 2 resuming and pausing of file transfers

Ok, JPEGS are previewd as a thumbnail... that's ok for me... but it would be nice to have MPG and MP3 to have previewd as well listen, or look at a portion that has already been transferred.:^)

Pause and resume is nice, but the one thin i want is an easy accessable way to watch the transfer statuses
