Do you mean with the tabbed chats?....

If you do I agree... I think there should be an option for top, bottom, left, and right. Maybe even if they were on the right to where the DP's got moved to the left (if it's possible)... But eh... I think we should be glad that we have them!

The option to show it on the bottom and right are already included, but not yet activated (for some reason; probably some technical issue; my hunch is that these options are for the RTL messenger versions, but since RTL isn't supported yet, they aren't available yet).

Yeah, you could always choose top or left... It's in the preferences for the tabbed chats.......

If you want them on the bottom read CookieRevised's post... Althought I'm not sure how he came up with it... he's very reliable.

I didn't gave a way to put them on the bottom (or right hand side) though. I just said the options are foreseen, but not yet activated for some reason. Why I know this? Because we had to translate them, take a peek into DefaultLg.dat:
quote:
(...)
;"Instant Messages\Tabbed Chats" preferences dialog
[PrefDlg.TabbedChats]
(...)
LocationTop=Top
LocationLeft=Left

;Not used yet
LocationBottom=Bottom
LocationRight=Right
(...)

;)
