The New Guy - Questions

Post by julius »

Hey Guys!

I’m new here and my english is not that good but I’m gonna try it.
I’m lovin’ Adium and I love my sweet Mac mini but I got a few questions about Adium as “the best free ICQ (and more) client for the mac”

1. When I put a Usericon in my AIM and MSN Account, everybody can see it but when I put one in my ICQ-Account, theres nothin’ to see for the ICQ-Users in my list! Why? Can I fix it?
2. The same with my Away-Messages. Aim shows my Messages to the other people but only ICQ doesn’t. Only when they write something to me, they get my Auto-Away. But only my Adiumguys in my List can read my Message. Can I fix that too?
3. Does Adium need much resources to work? I’d never take a look on it! Does it take much of the performance?

So, that was it. Maybe I got one more but I will write it then!

Thanks !!!
:D

Welcome!

1. Sounds like user icons aren't supported in the Gaim layer yet. (Gaim is the project that Adium acts as a GUI for).
2. Sounds like away messages aren't supported in the Gaim layer yet.
3. Adium will perform like silk on any Mac running Mac OS X 10.3 or higher.
