I have a question for the people that are using gaim. How do you shrink the icons in the buddy window down? I am using gaim version 1.0.

I run gAIM, also, are you running on Linux or Windows? On Linux I can walk you through changing icons, but I'm not sure on Windows.

Why are the status icons so big?

We believe that, by adding a second line of text to each buddy list entry, we're able to show more information about each buddy on the buddy list. The 'Big List,' as we call it, shows status text, idle time, and warning level concisely and attractively. It shows more than one status "emblem" for each buddy, indicating at the same time a mobile user who is away. Most importantly, it puts the buddy icon in the list, making it far easier to locate buddies within a large list where names are harder to pick out than images. Due to the increased usability of this interface, we have made it the default.

We are aware that some people feel more comfortable using an interface more similar to IM clients they may have used in the past. The 'Big List' can be disabled by un-checking "Show buddy icons" in the Buddy List preferences.

I'd need a new hard drive first...not much room on this one to even partition and move things over.
