inspired by http://drupaltest.campfirenow.com/, i request the following:
- increase the width and height of the chat message input box. ideally, this box grows to fill the available space.
- i don't know how they do this, but they don't have a scrolling textbox inside the page. their chat scrollbar *is* the page scrollbar. this may not be possible in drupal without theme help, but maybe some clever person knows.
- i like their table layout which clearly separates username column from chat text. note that format_name() already truncates long names so we don't have to worry about that ... use light grey table borders for each cell.

Anonymous (not verified) commentedhi moshe,
i like all three suggestions, but CSS is my weakest link, so it would be great it if someone else could step up for this.
on other improvements, i'd love to see some animations to help smooth out events like changes in the online list or chat list etc. this might have to wait for the jQuery version though.

pacheco commentedhi, i will work on that.
i agree that campfire style is cleaner then the gtalk identation style that we are using now.
and yes, animations will have to wait for jQuery port.
