Shall we? I don't mind either way, does anyone have an opinion either
for or against it?

Package: amsn
Version: 0.98.9-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hi,

aMSN 0.98.9 seems to use a new retrieval method for user display
pictures, and this allows for them to be much larger than the
traditional 96x96px size.

In some cases a user's display picture will be so large it fills the
chat window almost completely and/or most of the picture is cropped.
Right-clicking allows the size to be reduced temporarily, but after some
time (conversation times out / resumes) it can return to being oversized.

There is a configuration option autoresizedp that seems to preserve the
original behaviour of aMSN 0.98.3 (display picture will default to
96x96px).  Please consider enabling it by default (patch attached).

(Otherwise, this new upstream version is working very well so far, thank
you for repackaging it!)
