Hello Carsten, 

It could be done, but I'm not sure how well that would go over with
the privacy issue (although they've given me permission to use their
photo and e-mail address on the rogues gallery page.)

I'd be happy if TB! would have its tray icon in the tray even if it isn't
minimized.  For people (*cough, cough*) who use virtual desktops there is a
lot of time when the application isn't on the screen but it isn't minimized,
either.

I'd also love to see the ticker have the ability to be docked *and* be a
separate process in the process table so I could dock it to the bottom of my
screen above the task bar and then tell my virtual desktop manager to place
that object on all my desktops.

Yes - I commented on this a while back. The justification given then
was that some people leave The Bat!'s main window permanently
minimized, and use the Mail Ticker window along with stand-alone
message windows to read mail, rather than reading in the main window's
preview pane (as I do).

It would be real nice if The Bat! supported both techniques!

Yes, exactly.

Dunno if there is one already, but making one is pretty easy.

First create a group in your address book for TBUDL/TBBETA people. Add
a new contact for each person, adding in the Rogues' Gallery photo.
(Don't know if this has been fixed, but it used to help if you were in
a 24-bit display mode when adding, otherwise the colours would get
broken. Viewing works in any display mode.) Open the Address Viewer
window and flick through a few messages in your inbox to make sure
it's working.

Back in the address book, go to the TB group, and select all entries
(click somewhere in the right-hand pane, then press Ctrl-Home followed
by Ctrl-Shift-End.) Select File->Export to->Export selection... Choose
to save as type LDIF. This produces a file which could be placed on
the gallery website for download, for example.

To re-import it, go to the address book. Create a new group to hold
the entries, select it in the left-hand pane and choose File->Import
from->LDIF file. When it asks, select Yes to add the new contacts to
the current group.

I've done this already for my work address book, but non-Bat users be
warned: attempting to import an LDIF file into Outlook which contains
large binary photo data causes it to crash immediately. Even sending a
personal vCard which contains a photo causes it to die - the poor MS
user doesn't even get chance to preview or delete the message, as soon
as it is received their mailer will die! (Last tested about 4 months
ago, so this may have been fixed by now.)

It would be nice if TB allowed you to export a group directly, rather
than having to select all the members of a group and export that
selection - it would be a little more elegant to do this. Also, I'm
wondering if the group name could be output to the LDIF file so that
re-importing it would create the correct group and add the new
contacts to it automatically.

The remaining problem is that in this case 'Always' really means
always, no  matter if the Bat! itself is minimized or in the
background (doesn't have the focus). :(

Guess  I'm  missing something... I guess to then see the pictures, I'd
have to create an entry in my address book, add the pictures to it and
then I'd "see" who I'm writing to? ;]

In  that  case,  is  an  address  book all ready-made going to be made

Yes - right-click on the Address Viewer window, and choose the "Always

Rogue Gallery

[Leif Gregory]

Hello users,

I've got most of the rogue gallery done, but I need more user pics.
I've only got six so far.

e-mail me at <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and attach your jpeg that is
cropped to 120x144.

I think we really need Steve Lambs pic so that anyone getting into an
argument with him can print it out and use it for dart practice!
