GUI-Improvements for AChat

First of all, thx to the AChat-Team for this nice FunSoft!! ;D

But i have some suggestions for the GUI elements:

The complete GUI isnt optimized by now, many of the users i was chating with
have a screen resolution of 1028x1024 or something equal. others have a smaller screen res,
cos they are using a netbook...

I was spending near by 18(eighteen) hours to find out whats behind the config files in:

   ..\AChat\GUI

and

   ..\AChat\prog_data


And noooow theeeee X-Fiiiiles:       8)


The TextFile:

   U have one maintextfile but some GUI-Texts are spreaded wide over the fields,

   I tried to translate it into german, also i changed the fontsize, but didnt cached all texts
   by now, cos to many files to edit.
   u should consider to collect each text for the GUI in that only one mainfile
   (ive done this already for myselve but its uncomplete), it makes it easier to translate AChat in
             other languages.

   Give the the user the possibility to choose the fontstyle and fontsize.
   At the moment the fontsize is to big, i feel like a grandma ;)

The ButtonsFile:

   Near by the same as the texts, choose to collect each button config in only one
   config file, give each button a single simple id to use for.
   It will make it more easy to chose the right config for each fontstyle and language.

The ChatboxFile:

   The Chatbox is damn to small, the idea with the chat-history is quite good but cant resolve the
   size-problem. Sometimes i cant read that fast or im missing some txt from a user who is chating
   with me if im watching a profile at the same time.

   It would be also a great thing if u can make the chatbox floating.

   The TxtTemplate is a great idea also, but the user should be able to insert some own textlines
   by them selve.
   I was doin so, i was adding some textlines i may use often if im busy with my chatbox, beeing
   away from my comp for a while, so i dont have to type in each time i want to the same words ... ;)

The UserAvatarFile:

   It would be realy nice if AChat_Team could insert a posibility for technoobs to change it anyway
   more easy by themselve.

   U dont need this to change ur ava, u can do it by urselve, but its not easy like nailcollouring but its not
   that complicated.

Thats it for now, i hope my english wasnt that bad and everybody was understanding 8)
Thx for listening :)

Hallo montse,
du hast dir viel Arbeit gemacht. Bist du sicher, nicht gegen die AGB zu verstossen? Dein Einglisch ist gut, der letzte Satz ist vielleicht etwas umständlich. Wenn du mal Fragen bei der Übersetzung hast, kannste dich an mich wenden.

Welcome montse. A lot of work. As you seem to know how to program, maybe you have an idea why they didn't do it your way? Perhaps you should send this to the A-Team instead of writing here in the forum?

Das Übersetzen ist es nicht womit ich viel zu tun hatte, es ist nur die Texte sind so dermaßen verstreut
in so vielen anderen configfiles, daß ich erst einmal alles im haupttextfile zusammengefasst habe.

There are always terms of service. You can read it here http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/terms-of-service/ (http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/terms-of-service/). I admit, I didn't read.

You don't need an email-address. Just click on "Support" in the upper line and you get the blank.

You are not only talking about txt-files, you wrote

Im talking only about txt files cos these preferences are stored in txt files
if it isnt so i could never change this.

and no, i would never share my changes here without any permission.

and i t would make no sense cos with the next major client update these changes are for the cat.

Thats why im talking here, may be to find some others they are with me and may be
the AChat-Team could here us.

That what u quoted was only a hint to the AChat-Team to built in the possibility of changing font size!
Nothing more nothing less...
