I'm still wondering why MS left small avatars view in buddies list.... it was
present until messenger 7.5 then, with version 8 they removed them...
the detailed view is really horrible, I have 100 contacts, how can I scroll
list with big avatars??

Greetings,

Apparently it was deemed that the smaller ones were too small to be seen and we're taken out.

Yes, I miss them too.

I'd really like to know who decided that they were too small to see...

I remember when on messengersays blog people were asked to report their
opinions about WLM 8, and about 99% of people wrote that they wanted small
avatar pictures back...
