Ok guys, I have the code to show the photo in the contact list. Before 
commiting anything I want to discuss some issues. (look the referenced 
screenie) (don't blame it, quick prototype to get the thing working, this 
email purpose is exactly to discuss the final look)

for kde-usability guys, please read my blogs entries in kdedevelopers.org if 
you are not aware of this topic and you are interested.

As a summary Kopete now uses KABC photo in tooltips, and since now, it can 
show the photo in the contact list. Integration to allow import/sync between 
specific protocol avatars and the photo is coming too. I am not subscribed to 
usability so CC to me or kopete-devel is appreciated.

1- Should I make a new style [1] or just use the current detailed view?
1.1- in case [1] I want to hear ideas about this style.
2- Should I put the photo AND the icon (like the screennie) [3] or use the 
smile icon only if no picture available [2]
2.1 in case [2], the photo doesn't show if the metacontact is offline or not. 
Does making the photo b/w if offline makes sense?. In cas [3] what to show in 
contacts where no photo is avaiable to alow all cells have the same height?

any idea sor comments are welcome.

cheers
Duncan
