I just recently had to reload my computer w/ Win XP. I downloaded AIM and when i started it, i noticed that in the bottom right corner of my screen, the system tray, the logo was more….. juicy, or shiny. it had a light-blue background instead of the reg. blue, and a more orangish color to the figure that the reg. yellow….. upon restarting my computer, when i started aim, the icon was back to the normal yellow and blue, can sumone please help me out?
April 23, 2003 at 3:14 pm #96929HybridShinobouMemberDoes anyone know how to change it back?
April 23, 2003 at 8:48 pm #96926Kar715Memberi have the same thing. i like the yellow man better! im not sure if theres a way to change it though. it might even be which version of aim you have.
April 23, 2003 at 9:18 pm #96928HybridShinobouMemberi like the orang w/ light blue better but i used a resource hacker and it said something about the orang/light blue being 32 bit color and the other one is anyone under….. i cant set my video card at 32 bit unless i use an 800 x 600 res., mine is currently at 1024 x 768 and wish to keep it that way.. so i need a better video card because mine is a 5Mb :-[
April 25, 2003 at 1:11 am #96925Zlink123MemberI think what you are talking about is the different icons that appear when you change your AIM status. When you are online it should be orange with a blue backround. When you are offline but still have AIM in the toolbar will be the regular yellow with no backround. And when you are away it should looks like the orange AIM man with the blue backround is holding a piece of paper. I think this is what you are talking about.
April 25, 2003 at 3:50 am #96927HybridShinobouMemberwell not exactly because “the man” was orange and baby blue when i first setup aim. after i reset my computer “the man” was just yellow and regular blue
April 26, 2003 at 7:32 am #96924Zlink123MemberWhen you first set up AIM…? MEaning when you installed it, because when you install almost any program (I think AIM) it launches when you are done unless you uncheck an option. Is it a possibility that you finished the installation, AIM started up, and then you ‘X’ed out the buddy list making AIM idle in the taskbar? Wait, thats a lot of stuff to do…and you don’t sound like a moron…*shrug*
April 26, 2003 at 8:29 pm #96930HybridShinobouMemberwhen you install it, i unchecked the auto start box because my computer aint the fastest. i started it up, putting my screename and password into it and then i noticed the different color taskbar button it was orange not yellow. then i signed on and the “runner” was still orange with a baby-blue background and white outlining.
