Hmm.. That's a interesting idea.

I really like the idea, and especially when we need to talk about something, we can all be like "be in the chat at 8 PM" instead of waiting for everyone to put in their own opinions and a decision gets delayed.

I think it could be something that could prove useful, but the only thing I'm kinda worried about is moderation. I do like the idea though.

Why is it that every single picture i try to upload never fits?? the sizing is much too small for anything i can get.

Picture for what? Avatars can be 90x90 at 15360 bytes.

A chat would be good for quick conversations, but could be a pain for long conversations. Maybe I can find something that will kinda combine both.

every time i choose a pic for the avatar, it always says that it is too big. every single one.

what ways could a chat room be a pain for long convos?

Well, you must be going over the limits in either size or dimensions. Check again.

It'd be hard to organize all the different topics we may talk about, plus how exactly would we handle archiving? AFAIK chat rooms don't do much of that. So you either talk about it now or never. Lame.
