Hehe, fun you mention the "don't show a space between groups in contact list" option. I thought of it, but decided to think of the removal of the space as part of the behavior of the plugin! Actually I really don't know if that one in fact controls an aMSN option, or if the plugin changes the CL layout somehow. But I suspect the former to be true, because otherwise you probably wouldn't come up with this one now ;-)
(BTW: Doesn't it make more sense to make that option a skin option? Or was there some good reason to do it this way?) ---------- Oorspronkelijk bericht ---------- Van: "Youness Alaoui" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Aan: amsn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Onderwerp: Re: [Amsn-devel] Auto-resize display pictures Datum: woensdag 18 januari 2006 20:25 no, the plugin is there as an "aMSN tweaker" because some options are really there without being used, they don't have their place there... do you think the "don't show a space between groups in contact list" is an "aMSN behavior that needs an option in aMSN".. no, I think it's more of a tweak to aMSN, because it's not an option to control the general behavior of aMSN... about re-organizing, I say NO, I don't want to loose ressources on something that is not necessary, we had a horrible GUI, with horrible prefs window for so long, people can wait another year if it's really what we need... plus, if we assign ressources on this task, it will be just plain stupid to loose that, they could use their time better in completing the new prefs window... plus, imagine you spend hours on something and a month later, they say "thanx, but now, it's all in the trash", you wouldn't like it.. I don't want others to feel their work was useless because I know how it feels and it's horrible... now, as I said, we'll keep it as it is, keep as many advanced prefs as you want, don't remove anything, we'll keep all this horrible GUI until Tom takes care of the new design!
