Memberhttp://www.text-image.com is a pretty good Online-based converter that changes your pictures into characters. It might use up to many lines for your profile though….

And the URL is… http://slipstream.student.utwente.nl/picserver2003/
Try including such information in your replies. Telling us “I can do this and that” without revealing how you do it, is absolutely useless.

MemberOK fbiimage cant do big pictures… if you read the readme to pixel monster it’s simple. THen you need to save the file and upload it to a website.. yes geocities works as long as you change the .html/.htm extension to .txt since geocities doesnt inject thier add into txt files. then you link to it from your profile like this…

and change Message to what you want the link to say…Why would you use any of these programs if your not going to put it directly into your profile, what’s the point? Why no just link to the regular image?

Heh. I personally think these are some of the nicest people on the Internet–but that’s just me.

Memberbecause you cant have inages in your actuall profile, or even in an extended one. and this way it will link into the same window like an extended profile so that the browser doesnt have to open

Memberim serious though with all teh add ons ud think by now someon would have been able to hack into that part of aim to just allow you to put your own damn webpage in that space for your profile

People couldnt hack aim to gain access to a bigger profile. As they would run into the same problem the people trying to hack their buddy limit did. When you change your character limit in the registry it resets to default when you sign on to aim. If you try and change your info.htm with a webpage builder and then sign on aim it will cut off at 1kb. So someone would have to find a way to rerout or block information that is sent from AIM to AOL to stop it from going default. Then they can hack whatever they want. This is why no one has done it yet, as it is probably illegal too.

ParticipantWell, It’s be very difficult to get the image sent to the AOL Servers (As Someguy explained), but It shouldn’t be too had to modify the AIM Browser (The thing you view profiles with) to decrypt (for lack of a better phrase) the HTML and show Images. Only thing is that everyone would have to install it to use it.

Memberok off topic but oh well…
did you know you can send small apliactions and files over AIM using your icon… yes it has to be awfully small but it works you just have to get the file (not hard to find) and change the extension back to .exe or whatever
and if you use a small wav file then it plays the sound when they open your window or you send them a message -
