Hey Everyone!

It’s been awhile since the last update of Sparkle IM.  We apologize for the silence.  We have a lot of updates in progress, and we will start rolling them out as we finish them.  Expect many more updates in the near future, and please keep giving us great feedback!

Here’s what’s new in Sparkle IM 1.3.4:

• Avatar Appearance – No more clouds! However, if you like being a cloud, you can disable this in the settings.
• Profile Pictures added to the profile view.
• Born on date added to the profile view.
• Add IM sound and vibrate alerts (You can disable this in settings if you like to be stealth)
• Added Settings Screen (in app).  As we add more features, you will be able to customize things through this screen.
• Handle secondlife:// URLs.  If you click on a slurl, it will now open up Sparkle IM and set your login location to that of the slurls.
• Added Opensim Grids to the services list.  Even though you can add your own custom connection, we are making it easier for users of popular Opensim grids to get set up.
• Bug Fixes – We’ve improved the stability of our CMV library used to connect to Second Life, and Opensim.  We will continue to improve the quality so you can always expect speed and reliability from Sparkle IM.

You can find the updated version of Sparkle IM here.

You can expect another update shortly with some more features on the way!  Thank you all for your continued support, helping us make a great virtual worlds client on the iPhone!
