Perception

Saturday, April 30th, 2005

Just caught this thread on Gaim Forums. Edited juicy parts: User: When I receive messafes in Gaim 1.2.1 on Win XP, the font appears a lot smaller than it does in AOL IM or Dead AIM. Has anyone else encountered this or know a way to fix it? Admin: Yes. From Winaim (or “DeadAIM”‘s) buddy […]
