Sorry, the link doesn't work, and I don't know how to paste an image on this message ... I'll send an email to the address I get from your link above.

Hi,
Finally got on line with Adium, so here is a screen-shot as requested http://www.mzfh.com/misc/adium.jpg

I tried going back to the "Minimalist" message style, and discovered that it now--or was my memory wrong?--displays the same problem. The font in question is "Century Gothic", by the way, I think 12 point though it is rather large, as opposed to "Optima 12".
Since I last wrote, the HimmelBar problem is solved. Only Growl doesn't work on this machine.

I don't know either. I don't have this problem with Proteus. I'll try other fonts and will post a screenshot as soon as I can get into Adium and online with a contact ... most of my contacts are MSN-users, and currently, Adium has great difficulty logging on to MSN from here (Xiamen in China). If I try twice or more times in a row to connect, it crashes. Proteus has difficulty connecting, but doesn't crash. On the other hand Adium is slightly better than Proteus in terms of leaving my contacts in the groups where I want them, not continually returning them to where it thinks they should be!
TiBook 400 Mhz/640 MB RAM/80 GB HD, OS 10.4.3, Adium 0.87, QuickSilver, Stuffit engine, only basic things no haxies. HimmelBar latest version has problems, so I will remove it until they sort it out, Growl doesn't work with anything!

Why is it that setting the font works in "minimalist" message style, but only partially ... contact's text, not our own ... in this aNon? My text in aNon is in a particularly horrible, badly aliased font which might drive me back to "minimalist" even though I don't want the colours or need the names in the chat window!
