Alo alo,

Adium has had me hooked since about a year. Great going!!!

99% of my contacts are MSN buddies and just about all of them have custom buddy icons.

Some are too complicated to make out because the are so small.

Anyway, since I want all my contacts on my screen, the buddy icons are at about 24-30 pixels.

Nontheless, I'd like to be able to view a full size (128pixel?) view of their icons when:
+ I scroll over them
+ do a "get info"
+ possibly customize it in my chat window. Maybe have like MSN for Windows where the person's icon just stays on the side, not necessarily showing up everytime he.she says something (a la iChat)

This would be extremely useful since its nic to be able to see my friends up close (especially the chicks ;-) )

1) Already does this in .8, learn SVN or wait :)
2) When getting info, double-click the pic to learn more, edit, etc.
3) Not going to be a globally changed setting, it's per message style and several exist on the (X)tras site with full size MSN icons.

Indeed it does! Never woulda tried that, thanks!!! Maybe you could/should add a text-over that indicates this? "Double click to view icon options" type of thing?

Thanks again
