[QUOTE="katherine, post: 406946, member: 32020"] Thanks! I see what you mean - the colored dots indicating status, etc. However, the custom messages are what I'm really after. All that shows up on my buddy list is the first line of the "custom" message, followed by "..." and you have to mouse over it to see the entire message (but then it's just in a small text box and is unformatted) - in AIM you can see the fully formatted away message if you want when you right click the buddy name and select "get info." I was just wondering if that was an option with iChat; from what I can tell the "get info" feature on iChat only allows you to see the person's profile, whereas in AIM the away message was displayed in the same window as the profile with a line in between. Thanks for the repsonse, and I'll check into Chax to see if maybe that offers what I'm looking for. :) [/QUOTE]
