That wallpaper of yours is awesome. Would it be possible for you to share it? A link may be? I would use it only on Gutsy and not Vista, promise.

Nice blog, geekgirlxx. I do not use MSN, myself, but I was wondering how aMSN stacks up to Kopete and GAIM/Pidgin? Anything in particular that you like better with aMSN?
Hey.
Bala, http://www.imgx.org/public/viewset/1451 there you go! Originally from http://customize.org if I remember right.
Symbolik, I like those messengers as well. They are very clean and simple. aMSN is more feature rich. It’s a matter of individual taste and needs I suppose
