I think it would be helpful for chat users to be able to display an icon next
to thier name in the "users in room" listing that would take a user directly
to the store.

This option could be toggled on/off in the chat settings just like any other
option. I'd recommend default=off to keep things from getting needlessly cluttered.

This would be helpful for a few reasons:
1) A chat user could quickly see who the sellers are in the room
2) A chat user could quickly go to a seller's store with just one click
3) More store views = more sales (statistically speaking)

My recommendation for the icon is to use the same house icon that is currently
used for store links on the orders-placed screen.

no it doesnt, fb# takes you to fb# screen

what is proposed is a seperate item that serves 2 purposes

1) to identify sellers from none-sellers at a glance

2) to then link direct to that sellers store, bypassing other pages

in any case I voted no cos I was incorrectly identified as not having a store
on the graphic

I was surprised to see you were even in the chatroom.

(again, see past suggestion regarding font options)

I like her idea / suggestion. Some newbies (and others) don't know you can click
on the FB # to get to someones ID Card - and eventually their store.

Floating over the icon with a cursor can maybe say "Go to store"

I vote "Yes".

Good idea, some times you do get new people asking for links to your store in
chat and this would be handy

Including a help page explaining that icon.
