Description matej.magdolen 2009-09-16 21:02:58 UTC
Version:           0.70.90 (using 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1), Arch Linux)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.30-ARCH

Kopete resizes user identity avatars before using them for ICQ accounts, because of their limited size in this network. However, avatars are resized to size 52x64px which I feel very uncomfortable about. The most of IM users use square avatars and also many Kopete chatwindow themes stretch avatars to squares. ICQ network supports avatars sized up to 64x64px. I suggest solving this by changing the line 763 of the file kdenetwork-4.3.1/kopete/protocols/oscar/oscaraccount.cpp from
"const QSize size = ( d->engine->isIcq() ) ? QSize( 52, 64 ) : QSize( 48, 48 );" to "const QSize size = ( d->engine->isIcq() ) ? QSize( 64, 64 ) : QSize( 48, 48 );"

Have the same issue. When I changed my ICQ avatar trough web interface — it's looks good, but kopete change it again after restarting and it looks ugly.

Has anything happened concerning that matter? ICQ 7 supports 100x100 avatars so that kopete icons get always stretched.

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

First of all, I don't personally use ICQ anymore. I wanted to test this anyways but I can not get the access to my old account. I have made a new ICQ account to test this, but it seems that new accounts only support authentication via SMS, which Kopete does not support and the user is not allowed to set a password. Therefor I can not perform any tests.
