  | | Well the online information is available at the same time as the U-number page with its friends list is sent. So the opportunity is there to rewrite just the skin part to show that. Which means that were Jim Lynn to be bored and to be in favour of the idea (I'm not sure of his views on online eyes) then he could add it to his pet project - the plain skin. Adding it to the older skins isn't realistically going to happen and the current skin of brunel is much more likely to require official sanction to change.
Oddly enough, the online information doesn't appear to be available when the Watch page version of the friends list is sent. So it would be harder to add online eyes to that.

| | its sensible, and as i said,are the powers that be interested in even giving it a thought.
-
the only thing ive seen in the last month or so that even seems to have got a lookin is the linking the front page to the ps.
-
i noticed a thread again on the subject of having personal pictures on the ps,its seems to come up once each year, and the same answer, not possible.
-
if it was possible to itemise the things, in the 5 yrs ive been on, that researchers have surgested, you would find hardly any as been taken anywhere.
-
is the site for the researchers, or the ones that run it,we dont have a say,or it goes into oblivion  jim

| | Well it wouldn't be sensible to add the online eyes as graphics to the plain skin - because it's meant to be as low on junk as possible! Doing the friend text in a different colour or adding some minimal text indication next to the names would be more appropriate. Faking eyes in text using the basic character set is a bit limiting:
••
ºº
°°
oo
©©
**
but an old-fashioned text smiley might do the job - at least for those who aren't hopelessly young and thus think all smileys have to be graphics. Of course the online eyes (or asterisks on the MBs) themselves repeatedly have to be explained to people anyway.
