This is the code I use to make my players icons show up next to their name when they're talking. But it won't show the overlays, it just shows the simple icon..
client/script = {"<STYLE>BODY IMG.icon {width: 32px; height: 32px}</STYLE>"}


Is there a way to show all overlays?

well you can make a new pixmap for your characters and call it icondisplay and with this code it will show up next to the players speech text:
    verb

        say(msg as text)
            
            viewers()<<"<IMG CLASS=icon SRC=\ref [usr.icon] ICONSTATE='icondisplay' > [usr]: (msg)"

if this is not what you are wanting to do then i apologize.

Yeah, that's not what I wan't. But I probably wasn't specific enough.

When the player uses the "say" verb, it shows the 32*32 icon that the player is to the left of the name. However, it only shows the base icon. It does not show the overlays that the mob is wearing.

Well, you could have a version of the icon which has been blended together rather than overlayed. Or you could save the mob and reload it again; if you do that without taking the overlays off before saving, then the saved icon will have the overlays as part of itself.

There's gotta be a better way, but I don't know what it is.
