=== Installing an emoticon pack === | |||
Most people on the University Jabber server use one of the TEST emoticon packs. For Pidgin, there are two flavors: [https://wiki.pleaseignore.com/images/c/c7/SAGF_REDDIT_COMPLETE_20110913_PIDGIN.zip Complete] and [https://wiki.pleaseignore.com/images/4/45/SAGF_REDDIT_SFW_20110913_PIDGIN.zip Safe For Work]. | |||
# Download one of the Pidgin emoticon packs | |||
# Extract the zip into %APPDATA%\.purple\smileys (you can type this into Start -> Run or the Explorer location bar to get the actual path for your own Windows version and configuration) | |||
# In Pidgin, open Tools -> Preferences | |||
# Under the Themes tab, open the Smiley Theme list and select the new theme. Its icon looks like an orange envelope and should have a name like "Booda's NEW SA+GF+Reddit+EVE Emote Pack (Complete)" (for the Complete flavor). | |||
To get a list of all the emoticons, go into the directory you have extracted, and open the 'theme' file in Notepad. Alternatively, you can click the 'Smile!' button in Pidgin to get a list of all the emoticons, but this takes a long time to load. | |||
