I was using iChat, and then I decided that I wanted to use AIM instead, so I downloaded it and installed it. I later changed my mind and moved back to iChat. The only problem is that AIM apparently changed the icons associated with iChat. Now when I minimize a chat, and the person doesn't have a custom icon, instead of a nice little iChat/AIM man appearing down in the dock like used to happen, I get a nasty pixilated one. I am assuming it is from AIM, at least.







Does anyone kno how to get the pretty icon back?

    (drag and drop) icon utility. comes with "packages" to change a complete "set"



    individual icons can also be downloaded and swapped (http://iconfactory.com is excellent)



    restart is sometimes required to alter 'system' icons

    Thanks for the link, but where would I find the original files that iChat uses but that AIM replaced?

    I have no idea where you could find them, but I can suggest you to delete everything in those folders:

    ~/Library/Caches/ and

    ~/Library/Application Support/ 'something with AIM'
