I want a quick way to get to the profile of the person I'm IM'ing with. Quickest way I can think of is if there were a simple profile button on the IM window. (So I don't have to go scrolling through my calling cards when I want to send an object/whatever to the person I'm chatting with)

Sounds good, or a better way to organize cards would even help. How about an *option* to only show cards of people online.

I like this too.

But it doesn't actually solve the problem <G>.

Current way: 1) Open Inventory; 2) Click on Calling Cards folder; 3) Scroll to find correct calling card; 4) Open said calling card; 5) back to inventory window, click on objects/scripts/notecards/whatever folder; 6) scroll do the specific thing you want to give; 7) drag from inventory window to the profile window

Put a profile button on the IM window and steps 2 through 4 are eliminated from the above.

I still want a right-click Send To in inventory, as well though =)

Someone in another thread suggested listing all participants in a chat in a seperate (but possibly connected) window. If this were done then they could also implement drag-drop items on to the names, and/or double-click on name gets you profile and/or right click gets you the avatar menu for that person.

yes to all of the above.
please add drag and drop of item to give that item to all participants in the IM session.
- or -
dragging an item to an IM session chats a link to the item (like an embedded item in a note card) which participants could double click to copy to their inventory?
