Changing my buddy icon

I changed my buddy icon, but whenever I start Adium, it reverts back to my old icon. But when I go to change it in Preferences > Accounts > Personal, the correct buddy icon is displayed. What's going on?

Try restarting Adium. That might be a bug.

This happens whenever I start Adium. It's the strangest thing...

You don't happen to have your screen name signed on elsewhere, do you?

Nope... I'm only signed on in one place.

Looks like there are a few tickets that mention this problem. Hopefully it'll be fixed in the next release. :-\

It's not a bug.

If you have it set to "Use Address Book Icons as Buddy Icon" and your Address Book Icon is still set to your old icon each time Adium launches it will use your old icon despite you having changed your Buddy Icon in Adium.

The solution would be to change your own icon in the Address Book.

D'oh!

Looks like that was the problem. Thanks for your help.
