I wish we could customize photos according to where we login..
Something like this
(if) logged in at work then use workphoto.jpg, (andif) when logged in somewhere, use somewherephoto.jpg, else use homephoto.jpg (enif)..
There is no reason why you couldn’t do this already. Detecting the location from where you logged in you would have to do yourself (by network name of your computer for example), as this is strictly speaking no business of Skype API. Then you would have to write a plugin that launches itself with Skype (doable with Publishing Studio), see what comp you logged in from, then set your pic with SET AVATAR command.
Skype4Com has SET AVATAR implemented via ISettings interface:
Skype.Settings.LoadAvatarFromFile(‘C:Picsavatar.bmp’, ’1′);
I cannot find the link to download Skype4Com 1.0.28. All the web pages link to a DevZone page that only has links to the 1.0.27 version, which won’t help me. (I need Call.TargetIdentity) Thank you.
Nevermind. I’m new to Skype development and didn’t understand how to use the SendCommand method. I can get the target identity just fine, just not from the Call object…which is not a show stopper for me.
