There's 100% no hatin' going on :) I 100% respect trying to reinvigorate the project, and trying new UI concepts (UI is one of the first and most important aspects in a program in my not so humble opinion) I applaud and encourage you to continue zforrester. Thanks man, I appreciate that. Now, onto ...

Nah, we're not going to hate you. I'm active on the proteus forums because there's a vested interest in at least seeing them either come back to die off. I'd like them to stop screwing over their users and just get stuff out there. I dislike proteus because of my first post on the old forums actual...

I've never been a fan of proteus. Just to clear that up. edit: Both projects are not open source as of yet. Sorry man, I thought you were... you're active in the proteus community at least, sorry. Man, by the time this is over, the whole Adium team is gonna hate me. I have foot in mouth disease. It...

I respect the sentiment (community building) but attempting to pull users from one project to build another is at best an uphill battle (and doing so in such a pointed manner is a bit distasteful to me as we provided feedback in the community where it was brought to our attention - I'm not in the h...

Think of Safari. Now look at the image again. When you double click, what action do you expect to happen, based on the actions in Safari? What do you think the bar is? In that context, I'm thinking that the bar is some sort of bookmarking system for recent or important buddies, and when double clic...

this is nothing particularly new. http://brok3n.org/rawr/Old/BuddiesPane.png I really like this idea as a solution to the contacts/chats barrier. Problems could arise if you were looking for both specifically at the same time, but it has a lot of promise. Rich:: I'm not sure I know what I'm looking...

Hey, thanks for the feedback guys. Criticism is the only way to improve, so really, thanks. I'd like to respond to a few of things I've read here, hopefully I don't come off as too defensive, because I really do want to encourage others to comment. First off, yes, the Transfer Bar would be pinned to...

iTunes Full Screen Music Video Alert

I'd really, really like it if someone could tell me how to get growl to display alerts OVER top of a music video playing full screen in itunes. This would be really, really, awesome
thanks

Slow MSN filetransfers

Hi there! I did a search, and could find what I was looking for, so I figure I'll just ask away. I'm using the latest stable build of Adium on a G3 iMac running 10.4.3, and I'm on rogers high speed internet. The problem is I'm getting unbearably slow file transfers over MSN, but downloading and uplo...

Request: Picture Browsing

I use Address Book to manage all my contacts, and I've dropped in pictures for each contact. They display quite nicely in Adium, and it's a feature I really appreciate. However, it'd be nice if there was an easy way to temporarily view the contact image set by a specific contact. Know what I'm sayin...

I'm a huge adium fan, and use it every day (it's in my startup list!) but everyone's experience with adium can be very different due to the flexibility of the program. I just want to get a well-rounded perspective of it.

Adium Review and Tutorial

i'll be writing a comprehensive review and tutorial of Adium very, very soon for my website, MacTutorials , and I'd appreciate any hints, tips, thoughts, or criticsms of Adium that you, as users, have. How have you made Adium as good as it gets? What are some cool features that I may not know about?...
