HTML in profile?

Howdy! I checked out Adium a few years back and didn't like it too much. I ended up using Fire for a few years, and got fed up with it being relatively ugly and slow as molasses on a cold morning. I tried Adium again and was shocked at how beautiful, fast, and overall amazing the program is now! Nice work guys!
I'm running into a problem trying to use HTML in my profile. well, I don't really care about HTML, I just want links that aren't ugly. In Fire I had to use opening and closing HTML tags, but that doesn't work in Adium. It also doesn't work to just use the HTML link codes. If I enter the url it automatically turns it into a hyperlink, but I want to have alternate text, and not the ugly long link itself.
I searched all over google and the wiki and such, and wasn't able to find anything...
thanks!

or you can download the script from the xtras site (when its back up) called 'Raw Html' (i think) then when ever you type /html{} whatever you put inside the brackets is treated as html

That's my script
And I highly advise against using it. It's for messages. It returns <HTML> tags.
But if you really want to use it, make sure it's the ONLY thing in your profile or it will crash Adium. Not my fault; there is no way around it.

Could you please crash Adium with it and PM/email me the email you submitted the report on? That shouldn't be the case.

"A programmer is driving a few friends to work, and at the top of a steep hill his brakes suddenly stop working; after careening down the hill, narrowly avoiding death, he finally wrestles the car to a halt. He gets out of the car, examines it for a bit, and says 'Ok, guys. I'm going to take the car back up to the top of the hill and see if I can reproduce the problem.'"

* zaudragon 's xtra is on a wiki page! yay!
Well I originally thought it would be useless… it was to test my Font Waver script.
* zaudragon SFTP's it up to his server
