Administrators then discovered that they could remove this option through the Lync Server Management Shell. Users could incorporate nonstandard company photos into Lync by referencing an external public-facing URL to a social media website such as Facebook. (An IM conference is an IM conversation that involves three or more people.) Most people are picture oriented, so they'll end up looking at the picture first, rather than the name, to keep track of who is saying what.Įxternal photos were introduced in Lync 2010 on the client side. For example, suppose you're a participant in an IM conference that includes many people. Some people might feel that this feature is overkill, but there are situations in which it can be helpful. Figure 2: Displaying the Photo of Each Participant in an IM Conversation Now you can see the person's photo in the actual IM session while you're chatting, as Figure 2 shows.

Related: Microsoft Lync App Updated for Windows 8.1 However, attention should be given to the November 2013 Cumulative Update for Lync 2013 clients, as it includes a lot of features that both administrators and users have been requesting for a long time-features that weren't included in the release to manufacturing (RTM) version of the Lync 2013 client. Administrators often look to Lync Server cumulative updates to address problems, but little notice is given to Lync client cumulative updates.
