Description Roman Polach 2009-12-09 14:26:20 UTC 
Pidgin has feature called "custom smileys" (it works at least for jabber).
The purpose is to see the same smiley images in received message as sender
(by sending real smiley image along with text "shortcut").

Unfortunately, empathy (in Ubuntu 9.10) does not support this feature yet,
so this is the feature request for that.
Comment 1 Sumana Harihareswara 2009-12-16 20:33:11 UTC 
Roman, is this related to bug #583542 ?
Comment 2 Guillaume Desmottes 2009-12-17 10:44:37 UTC 
Do you know which protocol is using Pidgin to do that?
http://xmpp.org/extensions/ doesn't seem to contain anything about custom smileys.

Sumana: not really, this bug is about protocol specific smiley while this one is about user defined custom smileys.
Comment 3 Roman Polach 2009-12-17 12:07:38 UTC 
Sumana: this is related only to second part of bug #583542,
and because bug should describe only one problem, I see #583542
to be rather on "protocol specific smileys" than on "custom smileys".

Guillaume: I am not sure but according to http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/5627
it seems to be XEP 0231 "binary bits" http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0231.html
