Is there a way to not have a text limit on your AIM profile?? I’ve heard there was but i don’t know how to get it…
June 18, 2003 at 8:01 am #61244magistykMemberNo, not anymore sorry. Your profile must be equal or less than 1024k I believe.
June 18, 2003 at 5:07 pm #61247DavidParticipantWhat you can do is get some free webspace an include a link to it.

well, not exactly – to the best of my knowledge, you used to be able to manually update the HTML file that the profile comes from, and add extra text. the AIM profile editor only allowed a certain number of characters. you can still manually edit the profile (info.htm) but now the AIM servers start resetting profiles, or cutting them short at that limit… i’d suggest what the others mentioned, maybe getting some free webspace (thats what i did – i used http://www.freewebs.com/) or trying something like http://www.subprofile.com…
and i’m not always absolutely right, so if i’m wrong about the html file, someone correct me please

Your info.htm, is located:
NT/2k/XP:
c:Documents and SettingsWIN_USER_NAMEApplication DateAimSCREEN_NAMEinfo.htm
95/98/Me:
c:WindowsApplication DateAimSCREEN_NAMEinfo.htmNote:** It may not be your C:, but any other drive on your computer.

August 14, 2003 at 9:33 pm #61257westcostchopprsMemberDo u know where u can get the profile extension?

Also note that Application Data is a hidden directory, I have hidden showed but some people don’t
I have Windows 2000, and you do it like this (in my OS)
Start -> Settings -> Control Panel
Choose Folder Options
Go to the View tab
Choose the “Show hidden files and folders” radio button -
