Thats because (IMHO) gaim doesnt support file transfers yet. |

While on the topic of Gaim, does anyone prefer an alternative? It is handy, but still a little rough around the edges. |

You could try everybuddy (www.everybuddy.com), but to be honest, I stopped using that in favor of gAIM. |

That seems to be the consensus. I guess I'll just stick with it, and hope the coders are hard at work .
I'm using the MSN protocol, so the official AIM won't do me much. |

The buddy pounce option is so awesome! Does any other client have that? I started using gaim and never looked back... _________________ if i never try anything, i never learn anything..
if i never take a risk, i stay where i am.. |

I just wish the chat box would flash when someone types you a message. I never realized how much I would miss that feature until it was gone. Kinkatta does it, but it's not as versatile as GAIM, oh well... |
