Jabber has support for Avatars unofficially and some clients use it like Pandion (http://www.pandion.be/), it's for Windows but it supports it anyway.
Unfortunly as you said, very few people use it, I've once tryed to make my friends use it but I had no luck :( |

No Pack...
I don't have Linux installed right now, I've compiled these cursors with Knoppix 3.3 and it only has KDE 3.1 so I can't test if they install correctly.
Also I'm not going to do it because using KDE (3.2, don't know if it is fixed in 3.3) cursor installer causes the cursors symlinks to be turned into normal files making a lot of cursors disapear.
And finally why do it? It will be easy to install in KDE, but not on Gnome nor XfCE, using the method listed on the README file works for everyone.
While the 'people in charge' don't get a clue on their heads on how to do a consistent OS and waste their time and ours with pathetic things like making KDE speak or Gnome Nautilus open countless windows when most of people has a 1024x768 resolutions this kind of problems will persist.
They would be better off creating a common toolkit, a common sound API, and a common way to install mouse cursors.
Finally, just because the cursors are blue and green doesn't make them Windows XP cursors, infact they were designed to go with KoL's Sustenance Visual Style/Windowblinds theme. The fact that Sustenance looks like Luna is a coincidence ^_^ |

To tell the truth I've never liked my own clock crap, but the folks I've shown my cursors liked it and since I had no better ideia I've leaved the clock alone.
Thank you for for improving my cursors! |

My work on this cursors is done, no further modifications or changes will be made.
Also, I can't please everyone, this is a sorta of new style hand cursor if you don't like it too bad, but doing always the same thing over and over is useless, there are already enough cursor sets with a real "hand" cursor.
Anyway and as always, Have Fun! |

Sep 29 2004 on poll KDE app to be ported to Windows? (see 1. Comment) |
No one in Windows land need Linux apps, I never used any Linux app on Windows nor I intend to do, the reason is simple: it's not needed, why would I use K3B if I have Nero or KMail if I have other native clients?
What these apps need is more focus in make them work better and simpler, not wasted effort in porting them for nothing, simply because no one is gonna use them, normally even freeware Windows apps are better that Linux counterpart, one simple but devastating example is Irfanview, so get real and finish coding your apps.
Before I forget don't even try to babble about these apps being GPL and free while the other are commercial, no one gives a damn and only makes Linux people look like bad lawyers.
Finally no one is going to move to Linux because of the apps they have in Windows that's obvious, if they already have them why move? It's plain silly!
The only way to make people move to Linux is fixing it and give people lots of things they don't have in Windows and make a hell lot of publicity and markting. Don't expect normal folks to move to Linux without a reason, I've moved to Linux because of my curiosity about it but by no means I changed because I thinked Linux is better or has anything better than Windows to offer me.
Also to move people to Linux you need to fix it as I said because having toolkit nightmares (this is really the dumbest thing I've ever seen), infinite distros, bad config tools, and 3Gb to download and not even a simple way to install a apps (those you wanna port) is not what I call a good system. Yes Linux has good foundations, thing like RPM, Qt/KDE, virtual desktops and others are great but it's just some fancy things and none of them will make me forget that I need to compile apps for hours just to try them so....
Get Real! |
