what are some messenging programs that work well with aim (other than trillian, i already know about that)

being skinnable is a plus

let me help you more than that...

GAIM is a good one, my fav on windows really
miranda <- customizable as crap, just some work to do it
adium x if you have a Mac, i assume ur on windows tho (my fav overall)
then you have AIM and AIM Triton, and the various add-ons like DeadAIM that you can find all over the web

GAIM is terrible.

I still use it

same here

[Edited on July 6, 2006 at 11:14 AM. Reason : aim triton is worse though]

I use AIM 4.7 with the ads removed. It works great, is fast, and not flashy like some of the other IM clones

i have trillian right now..its not too bad

7/6/2006 1:15:51 PM

i really like adium

i would recommend using gaim. its not pretty but it works without all the crap. I dont recommend using an old version of aim since its probably susceptible to exploits (i.e. spyware, viruses).

But since I mostly use my PC, I stick with Trillian, which I've stripped down to basics through skins and turning off all the useless little icon things every program seems to ship with these days.

Adium = best ever

7/7/2006 2:58:31 PM

Gaim FTW. Who cares if its ugly so long as it works?

7/8/2006 6:51:06 PM

i got some cracked out version of dead aim

if you're willing to invest quite a bit of time into miranda, it can be everything you've ever wanted out of an IM client.

that being said, it requires quite a bit of effort, and isn't for most people

7/8/2006 8:46:50 PM

With the amount of Adium recommendations it sounds like it's time for you to invest in a Mac.

if miranda didnt fucking scroll down everytime a new message in, I'd use it.
