This is a contract position, although it could turn into a long term position.

Contact me at [email protected] is you think you've got what it takes.

Interesting....

Stay away from Jabber... you have very liitle control over it...
I was gonna use it but lack security that I wanted...

Heres some caps of what I am working on...

Full IM system as well.... all 100% custom.... Client and Server..

Server tested on my local machine can handle 3500 transaction/sec

Server : Windows Service using Mysql Backend (Physical size1.1 Megs)
4Megs Mem used - no clients.
Client connection requires and 32k per user.
Fulling scaleable - Enterprise (clusterable).
SSL Enabled. (client to server and server to server)
By Clustering Mysql and the Server the user limit
will really only be limited by your bandwidth.

Client : Can be anything you can dream of.... but here a few shots of
the one I am playing with right now.. Its an MDI app.
(most windows open within the base window, except a bunch
of Profile editors, Settings, Buddy List, Cam Preview ect..)
Video in the client can be default size, or what ever the
user wants.. Full screen is available as well.


I know, I know.. Im an ugly fuck.. lol but ....

Ok this is kinda like Yahoo - View Webcam only it took some vitamins



Heres the setting screen for that.





Here a couple of shot of the chat client....

Full URL and Animated Emotes... Emotes are load from an external package
and can be changed by the users. I have only loaded the Yahoo Pack here




As you can see it also has live spelling..... and "Speed Text"




All URLS sent in the program use an internal browser that I have full control over (popup blocking, URL blocking ect...) Shift right click will not open in the default, I capture the call and open it in the internal broswer




And as you can see its fully skinable... and skins can be change on the fly by the user or the system. This is only one part the system, there is a lot more to what I playing with. As I said.. the sky is pretty much the limit..

Oh and I had Voice Over talent do some voice overs so on differnt event
you hear and see the event... ie Kicked, Banned.. Login, Disconnect ect..


here are a couple of samples.... should give you the idea...

Banned

Kicked

I use this for some good happening

any ways... hit me up if you want to talk....
