Didn't we have this discussion already? The only thing i see as a "Feature" is your "add icons" on menu. Other than that, you're just advertising the "Script you're not releasing" and the channel you frequent.

Please, crop the image so that not only its less a load on those without broadband, but also so you aren't accused of the above.

Looks like your truing to turn it unto another MSN messenger. The "Add Icons" feature has been discussed many times. Like here and here and here. That was only the first page of search results.

Been so busy searching I must have forgotten what else you had suggested. Oh wait, there was just a modified screenshot with no list of suggestions attached, I was never too good at those "whats different" comparison puzzles, or the "mini spy" in the Sunday paper.

Features that you should have said in text in your 1st message were...
(1) the button to minimize
(2) a topic bar
(3) nothing else i could see, including extra icons as i didnt spot any,
* if there are other "features" they arent clear, mixed in with all the advertizing you were doing.

Oh yes calling it mirc 6.2 isnt a feature its a version number, if you say it is then i suggest a new feature , it being "V6.3"

My point is you seem to have a habbit of advertising your script with large pictures, rationalising it as a way to show what you mean. Dave didn't have too hard a time taking a script that advertised network, channel, and script name, and expressing the idea via text--why do you seem to?

BTW, some moments to recap:
- your voyeur with the Project dolphin signatures
- The script image where ParaBrat also has part of the discussion

EDIT:

You missed the topic, switchbar, and BG image advertising script name.

Things wrong with your post:
1) The image. Too wide, too bandwidth-whoring. Too-spam interpretable.
2) The image again. Doesn't even show what you're suggesting. The only thing that struck me that you were suggesting is a suckass default background image.
3) Insulting people and using random characters to 'dodge' the censor. L/eet.

Anyway. The suggestions:
Titlebar. What's different besides the lack of topic?
Topic bar. Dunno about this. I'd imagine it'd look pretty ugly, it certainly does in your example but that could just be the script.
Titlebar icon. So now instead of clicking in the top-left icon once and then selecting Minimize you can save one whole click. Doesn't seem worth it to me...
Adding icons. Yes, but it's been suggested many times before.

For what purpose do you need 2 buttons in the titlebar to minimise mirc.

Presumably it's meant to minimize to the tray, but since you can just hold Shift and use the regular button it's pretty pointless.

Well GetRight download windows have a similar button, but it's always been a bit picky about if and when it appears, so I'd imagine it's added using some hack. I don't know enough about the Windows GUI to say for sure though.

[[ i even cut most of my script out!! ]]

Yet somehow you cropped right below the mention of the channelname instead of right above, while there is no information there besides the channelname. Also, I know the phrase "a picture means more than 1000 words" (or whatever it is in english), but the one who made that up obviously did not have this in mind. How on earth am I supposed to understand what you are suggesting when you don't even bother to explain it.

We've gone through that Locutus. A moderator already edited out most of the conversion. That usually hints "drop it".

And how am I supposed to tell most has been cut out? All I see is "childish name-calling removed", and several posts after that with no evidence at all to what you claim for someone who first stumbles upon this thread.
