Serious Business Cats

Embed images inline... for Serious Business! For Skype for Business and Lync for Anachronisms.

Download and Install

Download the zip file here and extract the contents to a folder to run. As cats are distrustful and lazy creatures, and also portable ones, there is no installer.

Features

  • Embed images directly inline within your conversations!
    • Optimized palette and automatic resizing to fit Lync / Skype for Business client limitations.
    • Snip sections from the current display / screenshot.
    • Snips are archived automatically.
    • Trying to copy the image in the Lync / Skype4b client crashes the client. We have decided that this is a feature.
  • Blp! your friends and enemies!
    • It's like poking someone, except even more annoying.
    • The window or tab will flash as if a message was received, and may even display a preview of a previous message, but no new message will appear on the recipient's conversation.
  • WhisperCats! Have a conversation on the side that cannot be eavesdropped.
    • Diffie-Hellman key exchange with AES encryption.
    • An active MITM can defeat this, but come on, this is Serious Business Cats, we do it because we can!
  • Dark theme! Light theme! WPF Metro MahApps funky hipster downtown alley cat moxie homebrew tuxedo longfluff.
    • Get eaten by sharks. I wouldn't risk it. But you'll probably try it. The only limitation is yourself.
  • Like all good software, this started as an experiment or maybe a joke or a dice-rolling robot and ended up becoming actually useful.

Disclaimer

This is for Serious Business, not cats or image macros, nor Business Cat nor even Krahs Wobniar. Parboil rabbit or maybe bone-in chicken and grind it. Garnish with catnip and heavy gravy.

Is it breakfast time?

No! It is Serious Business Cats time!

Building

Built with Visual Studio 2015 and the Lync 2013 SDK.
