Free expressions for your AIM

Lately, I have have been playing with AIM (AOL Instant Messenger). One things that caught my attention was the huge selection of free expressions that you can use in order to customize you AIM buddy icon, buddy wallpaper and sounds.

Changing expressions is quite easy:

• From AIM, click Edit the click Expressions
• The My AOL page will open up. Go to the My Personality section. Here you can change your Buddy Icon, Wallpaper, Sounds and Smileys
• Click the relevant Change button.
• Select a Category and a sub Category. The available icons will show up

• Highlight a buddy/sound/wallpaper of choice and click Apply
• The selected expression will be automatically applied to your AIM.

Other option is to make your own aim expression. In case you choose this option, please make sure you have a 48*48 .JPG/.PNG picture that you can use

Important Tip: Some of the available expressions can be displayed only with the newer AIM clients (5.9 and up). In case your buddy doesn’t see the buddy icon or buddy wallpaper you have chosen, quite probably he/she will need to upgrade their AIM client to a newer version.
