how can i change other's buddy icons permenantly? i can give someone a buddy icon i choose, but their buddy icon seems to constantly override mine. i've tryed messing with a number of variations in the preferences about overriding with address book images, but nothing sticks. do i need to actually make an address book account, or is there a simpler way?

I believe the only permanent way is to create an entry in the Address book and set the icon there.

That sounds like a bug. Please see http://trac.adiumx.com/wiki/ReportingBugs
