|
|
Just to give anyone on my list a heads up, my screen name will be changing soon. I am getting rid of AOL and thus must make an AIM name instead. I will update here when the change happens. _________________ Why use logic when you can just...make stuff up? |

I *THINK* but I'm not totally sure that you can use an AOL screenname on AIM even after you have canceled your account. Try it out. ^_^ _________________ If there is one thing in the world that I know, love conquers all, it trancends time and space, defies all odds, and can bring you back from the darkness, it is the guiding light that helps bring you in from the rough stormy seas of life, and it remains even after you have gone.

In any case, be sure to get Gaim and not AIM. |

Gaim's better. It can actually process hyperlinks in people's info. Plus, it's on version 1.0.1, which is higher than 0.74 *nods*. |

You should go with AIM, simply to see my buddy icon smile and laugh and other stuff when I talk. ::nods::
But yeah, I had my old AOL screen name for years over AIM after I cancelled....until I realized forgot the password and needed it, and the e-mail address they sent the password to was my AOL one... _________________ Help! Help! I'm being oppressed! |

Don't you just hate it when you've forgotten a password you have not had to actually enter in years? _________________ If there is one thing in the world that I know, love conquers all, it trancends time and space, defies all odds, and can bring you back from the darkness, it is the guiding light that helps bring you in from the rough stormy seas of life, and it remains even after you have gone.

I'm using Trillian Pro 2.0, and recommend it highly. I really haven't played with Gaim, so I can't say much about it, but look at it's listed features and Trillian Pro's, Trillian Pro wins hands down. Between the free Trillian and Gaim, it's probably pretty close. I went Pro because it had features I wanted that no other IM (free or not) I could find did.
What I DON'T recommend, ever, is using AIM. Especially the later versions. Loads so much crap (including, but not limited to spyware) on your system that it isn't even funny.
Edit: Trillian loads up buddy icons just fine, Dante. You should IM me just to see mine. _________________ Counselor Faith Tempest

And it's not very hard to find a... free... copy of Trillian Pro, either.
Wait, what?

My new SN is WriteMeAlive. _________________ Why use logic when you can just...make stuff up? |

Beau is correct. |
..really?
Code: |
Your Screen Name is blocked from signing in to the AIM service. There are several reasons why you may have received this message:
1. Screen Names that were previously used on AOL but have been cancelled or suspended, can no longer be used on AIM. This includes both master accounts and sub-accounts. In order to continue using this Screen Name on AIM, please reactivate the account on AOL. |
