Yeah the iChat model is very close to my own usage. Funny though according
to the iChat dictionary that attribute is read only and returns a TIFF
image. Yet I've found one script that claims to write to it:

Anyways, I guess my real confusion is how AppleScript handles images. I
don't see an image nor a binary data type. For iChat, the 'image' attribute
it uses "TIFF picture" data type but I can't find any reference to what that
is (online nor my books).
For my logo attribute:
<property name="logo" code="lOGO" description="For clients this is the
little icon in the sidebar, for the billing company this is the large logo
that appears at the top of an invoice." type="???">
<cocoa key="scriptingLogo"/>
</property>
What should the type be?
Are there any example Cocoa apps out there that have image attributes?
