My Details
What it does:
- Show your current configuration, per protocol, for avatar, nickname, status and away message
- It shows each protocol at a time, cicling throught then
- Allows to set nickname (per protocol or for all protocols) and away messages (per protocol or for all protocols or - need NewAwaySystem, SimpleAway or core module)
Some comments:
1. SimpleAway does not show a dialog to set a message for all protocols. Someones it does not show the dialog (I requested it in the thread http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?p=47157).
2. For core away system, only some protocols works (probabily the same as SimpleAway). But for the ones that it works, the message in the frame is the old message. I know, it suck... But if you use ersatz plugin this problem doesn't happen: http://pescuma.mirandaim.ru/miranda/ersatz.zip
3. To allow setting avatar, a protocol must implement the services in http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?t=5583 (AFAIK now ICQ, Yahoo and MSN does)
To do
- Global page
- Add custom presets
- Resize on mouse hover
- clist_modern_layered integration -> try this: http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?t=6597
- New drawing code (please, do not request things like order of items or spacing, it is in TODO list, but will take time to be made)
- Options to XStatus setup
- Icons instead of ... on mouse over
- Options to show/hide itens
Dependencies:
- If you want integration with clist, an frame enabled clist, such as , clist_modern_layered or clist_nicer+
- To draw and set avatars, Avatar service (latest version)
- Away systens supported: Core, NewAwaySystem or SimpleAway
To report bugs/make suggestions, go to the forum thread: http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?t=5643
To request support to other away system: If someone wants to use another away system, please request in its thread to add support for 2 services:
1. Get current status message for a protocol, given its name
2. Set current status message for a protocol, given its name and the message

how do you make the my details background transparent?
Currently there is only this way: http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?t=6597
what is the theme in the screenshot?
It was posted in the thread in miranda forums by a user. You need to ask him.
Please, master. Loyally, I please you. Don’t make this plugin addicted on a “Skins” engine. Having another 2MB gigant only because of one field in contact list — if everyone would manage their plugins this way, everyone’s Miranda will be more than 100 MB tomorrow. This waste of resources on a “feature” that lacks any sence of usability is….yeah, terrible at all :/
Hehe 
Well, I’ll decide that when the time comes (aka when skins + my details is stable), but probably it will depend on skins (I don’t like to duplicate code).
Besides, I disagree with you in 2 this:
1. 2MB is not much (my miranda uses 11MB without skins, 13MB with it). Think of it as a MyDetails plugin with 2MB. Besides, old MyDetails still works and will keep working (there is not much change in features besides the skinnable thing)
2. I don’t think the skinnable feature lacks usability. I think of it in the oposite way (for me it’s a clever idea to use js to position the controls). Could you please explain to me why you think the way you do?
Well, you wrote it yourselves in 2) shipping 2 MB only because of positioning of 5 controls (I mean avatar, status message, status title, status icon, nickname), maybe one or two more controls? Whole clist_modern has around 600 kB in size with all its magic. I see the Skins plugin a little reduntant just to have it for a plugin with 150 kB in size. Situation would be maybe different if >75 % of plugins would use its “benefits” somehow. You don’t like WinAPI or what? x) How “heavy” would be an implementation of good WinAPI based mini-framework? How were the controls positioned before this idea? I haven’t seen a code yet, sorry x) BTW I like JS when used in proper places, f.e. web pages where it’s naturally supported (yea, positioning absolute DIVs and this stuff). But here you need a heavy wrapper from JS to C++/WinAPI, some more place for defining actions etc. It’s not effective :/ Yea, it may be clever to write something like:
SetFrame( space_left, space_top, space_right, space_bottom );
JSPlace( avatar, x + 2, y + 2 );
JSPlace( statusMessage, x_center, avatar.height + 2 ); or something
but I’m sure you’d be able to do it naturally, lightly and simply… 
Of course I could write my theme code. But it would be less powerfurll and probabilly slower than v8 (just because I don’t have the needed time do spend in it).
I think 2 MB is small nowadays, and is a low price to pay for the freedom it provides.
Thx for great plugin, is it possible to hide this italic text with status msg http://ftp.swah.net/miranda.png ?
hello
i use ICQJ S7/SSS 0.3.8.104 and mydetail 0.0.1.4. in every protocol connection the miranda crash.
