WISHLIST: to have better and more efficient emoticon manager

The current emoticon manager is quite limited in functions and its usability.
i would like to suggest these:
1. to allow more than 8 char shortcut to an icon. this will be useful for
ppl that store tonnes and tonnes of icon and wish to differentiate them by a
lenghty name.
2. to allow on-screen prediction of emotion with similar keys, e.g. pressing
':my' + 'ctrl-a' will shows all the emoticons starts with shortcut ':my_'
3. easy listing, grouping and viewing of emoticons.
4. more user friendly way to transfer emoticon from pc to pc.
5. to allow unique shortcut (with full 8 char) to emotion. viz, if i had
associate ':s_my' to another icon, it wont show as it is, as ':s' had already
been associated to the default..
6. and the list could go on and on...
feel free to contact me for more ..;P

Hope you can help me. When I cklick on a person. I have no tool bar at the
top and I don't have a icon to click to have a webcam talk. I hae the phone
icon. But thats it.

Greetings Maxx,

If you press Alt-T on the keyboard while in a conversation window, then go to Show Toolbars,
you can turn them off and on.
