user images get really small as the tree gets big... about gource

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I agree the positions of the names above the users seems a bit wonky at some 
scales.

Having the option to scale the users to the window size is an interesting idea. 
I'm
not sure it should be the default, as on some projects the user images would 
just
obscure everything.

There is the --user-scale SCALE option, though that is not relative to the 
window
size. I guess the way to go might be to allow '--user-scale fixed:SCALE' to 
indicate
the scale of the users is fixed (relative to the window).

Names now scale more accurately with the user size in the new release. I've 
done some
work on the fixed user scale feature though there are still some issues it 
raises I
need to deal with (my method of tracing mouse clicks doesn't currently work 
with this).

Is there an update on this? I'm working on a video with gource, but the user 
images once the camera moves out is really unfortunate.  I'm not using the 
mouse, so even just a patch file i could apply would be sweet.

I'll take another look at it.

Is there an update on this?
I'm using 400x300 images at scale 2, which are pretty big at the start, but by 
the end they are completely unrecognisable, appearing as tiny dots. It would be 
great to be able to have more control over the size.

Is there an update? I like the suggested '--user-scale fixed:SCALE' solution.
