In summary, the chat support popup is a trial option that is only for administrative or forum questions. The image for the chat icon can be changed, and is used by different sites.

Some of you may have seen me experimenting with a live chat support popup a few hours ago. I've since put the support option as a button on the homepage and on the contact us page. This should be use for administrative support or forum questions only. I'm on several hours a day, but can't guarantee any specific times. This support option is on a trial basis.

Nice!

Are you able to change the picture/avatar of the chat icon? I'm not sure what it says during regular hours, but right now it says, "Leave a Message" and has a picture of a man who I swear I've seen before (being used for a similar purpose). I think it would be cool to put a picture of yourself, or maybe a famous scientist or something.

Probably in some teeth-whitening add :biggrin: I rather see the furry little creature.

If the support becomes worthwhile I'll change the graphic. At the moment it's a stock photo the software company provides. I'm using LiveChat. It's a very popular live chat support software. I'll keep the service up for a month and determine if I want to continue with it.

I also vote to change the graphic, the guy looks just a tad too cheesy.

Such a stock photo doesn't make me want to request support, quite the opposite.

True. The guy looks like a psychopath, IMO.

Maybe you could put an 'open' icon when you are online and ready to deal with requests live.

The icon does change when I am offline.

It lasted two days? Was there anything specific that made you end it so fast?

Got a lot of quick hang ups. No real support given. Not worth it especially if it's a paid service.
