Patchou does listen to suggestions. But believe me, there is no better/other place for the icon. The place where it is now is the best place it can be, this will nog change. IF there was a possible better place it wouldn't be where it is now...

Everything in Messenger Plus! isn't simply and quickly slammed together like put some things here and put some things there, it is thought about. And as you can see in my previous screenshot, there is NO other place to put it.

As for a tab; if you would slide up a menu from it when you click, that wouldn't be a tab anymore. Windows is all about consistency; you can't just go and change the functionality from controls. And also, Plus! is an addon, not a stand alone chatprogram. It only can use what is available by hooking MSN Messenger.

So thank you for your suggestions, but it will stay where it is, afterall it's only 24 pixels. That's less then 2 small letters. Your display picture takes more space, even when in the smallest size!
