problem with this aproach is a naming one. The calculation of the display name 
has gotten complex in between. And then... if you change some component the 
photo will no longer be shown. Something like 
/home/$user/.contact_photos/EntryId.jpg would work. But right now the EntryId 
of a contact is not user visible (and there should be no reason for it to be).

Btw. the filebrowser to select the foto is fixed.

the following would be potentially useful:
add a user to contacts, let's call him 'John Smith'
take a photo of John
place the photo in /home/$user/.contact_photos/John Smith.jpg
then, on using contacts/dialler/messages/etc., john's photo
automatically appears

Ok, entering the path is good enough for me right now.

Thanks, I didn't find Photo field.

It works as you said, except that file browser didn't appear, and I had 
to write the file path instead. I'm using shr testing, by the way.

Unfortunatelly I think I broke the filebrowser :/ Will have to check later. If 
the filebrowser does not pop up you can just enter the path to the photo and 
that should work.

SHR phoneui-contacts buddy icons

2010-05-04 Thread ø
Hi.

Excuse my stupid questions, but I have looked for it on google, list, 
SHR manual and Openmoko wiki, and I can't find it. Maybe I'm not using 
the right words.

I was wondering what are the green one eyed alien that appear next to 
the contact name in Contacts list. I thought that it was an icon to 
replace with your friends photos, but I don't find where to change it.

Sorry again for the silly question.
