Ambient Messaging 0.2

Third Eye Blind




I am back for more Ambient fun.  Tonight I am releasing Ambient Messaging 0.2 for AIM Lite.  Remember AIM Widgets only work with AIM Lite for now.  Thanks to people who gave me feedback on the first version.  In this version I have added:
    * Preferences so you have better control over The Flickr Bar.  
    * Support for toggling the window to stay on top
    * The option of using a different format of the window that floats on the desktop. 
    * Ability to set your location and fetch your buddies' locations to be displayed in the FlickrBar. 
    * Added a tooltip so you can see the tag that I am using to pull the pictures. 
    * Preference to underline the search term I used to get the pictures in the IM window.



You can download the Ambient 0.2 here.  As always feedback is helpful, and I appreciate it, so let me know what you think.  If you want to check out how I did this, just change the file extension to a zip, and all of the code is viewable in notepad or your favorite text editor.
