CAGiversary!
Formatted my hard drives, thought I had an old version I copied over somewhere but I don't. Anyways what version is everyone using? I'm using the newest one and I hate it, is there a site I can download the latest version before Triton?

It sucks. I needed to download it onto a laptop, and I figured I'd give it a shot.. Don't. It's awful. I use Trillian, but thinking of downgrading to AIM 5.
 
I prefer the old version, over Triton I don't think you can have any capitals in ur aim name when you log in. Even if you put them in, it changes automatically to lowercase.

5.5.3415 is what I use.[/QUOTE]


Thanks for the site, I downloaded the 5.9


Trillian looks too much like yahoo messenger/Triton. Triton doesn't seem user friendly compared to previous versions.
 
OP im in hte same boat... I dled tritan and realized how shitty it was. Thanks for the link in this thread whoever posted it, now I can have non shitty messaging! YAY :)
 
Like I said, I use AIM regular, but I've tried Miranda and it's pretty nice.

Plus its skins are unbelievably sweet.

That's a pretty bad pic of it, but it'll do. I was showing it to my friend (osurumsan).

And yes- it's transparent.
 
Miranda is good if you are a minimalist. It's very barebones but is sufficient for everyday chatting.

Do you know how to install/make skins for Miranda? I would love that skin, but right now I'm using Gaim.
 
Love Trillian, have a couple of issues with it that I'm still trying figure out, but nothing really that has bothered me. Oh and I want to try Miranda one of these days. Here a lot of good things about that one.
 
I'm using the crappy AIM Tritan. You have to jump through hoops just to turn it completely off. I'll wake up at 3 in the morning to take a piss, and see that I'm still signed on, and one of my friends has sent me links to questionable Vietnamese porn.
 
I dont use AIM or chat too often, if I really need to chat with someone, then I tell them to go and get IRC (since we're talking about clients, I use mIRC modified with the UPP script) or just call me.
 
Besides VanillaGorilla's rant on the shut-down of Tritan, what else do you guys not like about it? I was thinking about getting it, but don't want to waste my time if there's too many things wrong with it.
 
I use Trillian, but the only thing I don't like is it doesn't update the buddy list if I add someone while using it, then go to a friend's house and go on their aim.
 
I've tried Triton Trillian and regular old Aim and Gaim just does everything I wan't without taking up to much space and dosn't have giant icons and clashing colors, but it still holds all the functions I want, which rocks.

Awesome - if you have that skin still would you mind sending it to me?
