That sounds like a pain in the rear from the users' point of view. I actually think that just having a client side configuration that defines regexps to replace with graphics would be interesting enough. That way the user isn't constrained to a small number of icons bundled with their client. When sending the icons, via some method, to a remote client. Who should be responsible for checking that the images don't uncompress (format permitting) into a 10Gb file that causes a remote DoS ? My guess would be the client is responsible... Hmm, I think I just answered my own question. -- Dave Turner http://figroll.com/
