We need a API from twitter side, to fetch a thumbnail of images, just like twitpic and other image servers that "photo preview" plugin is doing them! Right now, As I know, images on twitter server are just a URL link in Choqok! And we have no tool (API) to convert them to a link to a thumbnail image to show.

I found the API, it was quite hidden :/

We need to get and store Tweet entities https://dev.twitter.com/docs/tweet-entities
And by adding ":thumb" text to "media_url" field, we can find the thumbnail of image
e.g.:
"media_url": "http://p.twimg.com/AQ9JtQsCEAA7dEN.jpg"
thumbnail image URL: http://p.twimg.com/AQ9JtQsCEAA7dEN.jpg:thumb

Their job is as you think, getting a preview from videos and photos to show in Choqok, but not everything! right now they support some special services, such as Youtube/Twitpic/...

Hi,

I will have a look at this.

I also updated the version information above, since this is still valid in the current git version.

Cheers,

Daniel

Fixed table of own posts and added resize to image to fit better into gui

The layout for the own tweets was broken with my last change. That's working now as expected again.
Additionally images will now be scaled down if they are to big to fit in the
postwidget when the user resizes the window.
