    What are the best sites for icons? I'm tired of people asking me why I don't have one, so I'm gonna get one...

    I'd search by what you like rather than one certain site. Just google ______icons. Badassbuddy.com has some good random ones.

    Ive never had a buddy icon, and no one has ever said a thing to me.


    I briefly had a BMW logo...but then I F-Disked.

    Meh, I make my own. I don't really go for the animated things.

    AIM icons suck in that they only allow small sizes, and even though they claim to go up to 64x64, they really resize them to 50x50--and their resizing sucks.

    My suggestion? Nab a JC icon if you want some SW thing, or get your own image and make a 50x50. Use Paint if you have to, that's what I used until I finally learned how to use Photoshop.

    I don't know about Triton, because I don't use that infernal piece of TOS-breaking trash. :)

    However, in good 'ol AIM 5.9 or lower, you just go to My AIM->edit options->preferences and click the "buddy icon" entry. Then, at the top, it'll let you upload whatever you like from your computer.

    My AIM buddy icon is one of Kaylee from Serenity. I got it from the official movie website, but I'm not sure if it's still around.
