support for user picture field

+1

You can add somthing like this in theme_chatroom_message_username function

if (isset($chat_user->picture->uri)) {
$output .= theme(
    'image_style',
    array(
      'style_name' => 'thumbnail',
      'path' => $chat_user->picture->uri,
      'attributes' => array(
        'class' => 'avatar'
      )
    )
  );
}

Thank you for the reply!

I have added support for user pictures. The attached patch adds options to enable/disable user pictures in chat and to select the image style to use.

Looks like the effort is going now into 8x. so lets try there :)

Thx for patch #6! Last lines failed, but I figured out what they should have done :) It's working.

@perohu Maybe you could share the correct patch, so this could be incorporated in the D8 version.

@platinum1 Sorry, but I don't know how to create a patch file.
Now i asked my friend, Google, and I found out that I can create one with the command "diff". Give me a little time, i will try to create the patch file very soon.

@platinum1 Sorry, but I failed to create the patch, but I attached the modified version of the function which the patch failed to patch.

@perohu Thank you for your effort!

This patch adds user pictures, and a few other things for 7.x. I didn't go so far as to modify schema and add admin options, but I'd appreciate testers if anybody is up for it.
