Enhanced Storage Box Suggestion

Hi...
We all know that storage boxes store a specific item type. It would be cool to show a small icon of
WHAT its holding at any of its edges. This will surely help managing crafted storage boxes in the depository instead of manually hovering the mouse over each storage box!
See the attached pic as an example...
Guys Kindly Present ur views on the above suggestion..i feel it can help reduce alot of manual hardwrk.. !
GMs..if this is possible try thnking bout it.. !!
P.S. i knw the pics arent neat but i jsut wanted to giv u the idea...the gms can wrk on its appearance.. !!

I thnk it shuldnt be a prob.. !
All they have to do is change the bitmap based on item type... !
im not saying its just to small a job..but its not that difficult too... !
n Aniket i thnk we shuld keep the pic in the corner only...it looks pretty that way...centre doesnt seem nice to me

@ Obli
The Idea which i have given is Nice...
but itz impossible
the Bitmap files which u are talking about..... means
as far as i know there is only 1 Bitmap files i.e. of Storage box
and we cannot change it means we cannot keep Seperate Bitmap Files for Each Storage box
(coz Database has no Place in it for that

)
But as there r many New implementations done by Scar
May be he can do it

The pic yu hav given is tidy coz of the size.... ingame the storage box is smaller than shown here... in the corner the icon of the item will become more smaller... thts y its better in the centre... i dunno nething abt coding... bt i think it can be done... only the question whther its worth doin or nt

that can be done on the left side.. !
And roshan....They dont hav to specifically change the bitmap for each n every item.. !
They just hav to code sm stuff n the stuffs , when put into the box will themselves appear as above.. !
I Hope some GM can shed some light to it.. !
As far as the necessity to do it...its just a small suggestion..its alright even if we cant hav it

!!

Its easy said than done.The idea is great but implementing this means modifying the client files which will also involve the risk of bugs.Maybe nume can code this thing but he may think abt it.He also considers the respctive changes any implementation has on other data.So possibly he may think abt it but implementing cannot be seen anytym soon.

As i said..its just a tiny suggestion..its alright even if we dnt hav it.. !
