Finally, we're pleased to announce several new enhancements to our
chat system, including custom "tinyhead" icons for regular participants,
conversational "actions", and a reporting system that shows you who
is in the chat system BEFORE you launch the chat applet. We've also
added an archival feature to the chat server. Now, you can browse old
chat sessions at your leisure! Enhanced support has been added for
private conversations and private rooms as well. If you haven't
been to a WetCanvas! chat session - don't miss out!
