Maybe it should be the same size as some of the avatars or buddy icons
that are already in wide use today? E.g. livejournal avatars are
100x100 and aim buddy icons are 50x50. There's already a lot of these
icons that are easily available for users to add in for themselves.
I think this pretty much depend on how we want the GDM screen to look.
And for our large screens I think 50x50 is to low. Depending on the
layout, even 100x100 may be low.
I *think* the largest size for a buddy icon in Gaim is 96x96 (gaim 2.0,
conversation window).
Yeh, I'm just thinking about all those sites like www.imbuddy.net that
have tons and tons of the 50x50 icons for people to use - even sometimes
places release official buddy icons for their movies, TV series, or
music albums (snakes on a plane and battlestar galactica official buddy
icons are a couple examples)
If the technical max is 128x128 maybe 100x100 is a good size because
there are also a ton of icons available at that size already (See

I guess my point is rather than trying to set a new standard, maybe go
with one that's already out there and gives folks a LOT more choices.
