..but please don't tell that Audium is better!
Where the infos profiles? The groups? (the console?) The off-line buddies?
Fire is slim, not obtrusive, elegant even if not 'nice while Audium is redundant, baroque, bloated like a vulgar microshit messenger.
There is not a better Fire, even if needed (audio/video/file transfer is not up to date for near all chats) and.. the ridiculous is that windoz users envy us for it!
When we will lose definitively Fire.. it will be a sad day!

Again problems with msn - Prisca

Hey there, not sure if you've ever heard about it, but Adium (yeah, I changed your world I know, now you know how to spell it =P) looks exactly like you want it to look like =P if you're not able to make it look decent with the HUGE amount of possibilities that you're offered, then it's your problem =p Adium works perfectly and the look can be also very good, serious, colorful, insane, or whatever you want it to be. Not to mention that you can change also the sounds as you like and what not.
Fire is not that bad, but it's sure not as good as Adium.
Those who have Windows can sure envy us about Adium, that compared to Trillian basic (have no idea about the Pro version but they say it's good) and to Pidgin (sp?) rocks so hardcore. But Fire is not really a program that will be remembered for its greatness, especially compared to Adium.
And like the last comment I read says, Fire has no future. The last version came out last year. That's a bit sucky considering that this kind of 'multi-messengers' aim to be just as good as the original ones when it comes to giving chances to do new stuff, and better about the way they work and look like.
Fire is okay I would say. Not bad, for sure. Adium is very good, instead.
