wow.. I expected to have been berated by my deathwisher by now...

ANYHOW, still running great, much better then expected. Even the basic version. Still a little quirky, but Cerulean has made huge strides in this product since the last time I used it.

Wow!! I was gonna really lay into ya after reading the inital tirade at the top but I'm glad to see you are willing (unlike some others) to try and fix the problems you have as opposed to just pissing and moaning and then never returning.

Like most of the other posters here, I've used Trillian since before you could even buy a version and I've had very little trouble with it. Most issues were in the beginning when various providers (AOL) would make daily changes to try and keep Trillian from working on their network. Recently however I have had exactly zero problems with it and I connect to, AIM, Yahoo, and 2 MSN accounts all at the same time in one combined interface. I absolutely love it!! I must, to pay for it year after year...

Now, my only wish is for them to do something about the skinning mechanism because I've seen mention of the fact that Trillian is a major PITA to skin which is why there are so few good skins for it.. Hopefully they will fix that very soon!

Again, glad you got your problems rectified, and remember, if you have problems in the future a post with details about the problem and the steps you've taken to try and fix them will get you far more help than a pointless tirade berating the quality of the program.

Seriously I don't think anyone would be after you to kill you but it is good to know that it is working....and I knew you would like the new version once you got it working.

Definately go over to DA and take a look at their trilly skin section, probably has the best ones there on the net right now. At least until we can convince WC to add a section.

I tried a few of the skins, but it it seems if I use some of the skins built for previous versions it "locks" the skin. It won't change back. The best I could do was reinstall the prog and I have stayed with the "whistler" skin since. Also, I usually run the program with AIM MSN, and 2 Yahoo's. The ability to be signed into more then one user account is a great saving of resources! No more running two instances of Yahoo at the same time

Hazy,

Yah, skins can be hard to come by that's for sure, and good ones are even harder!! If you are really interested, check out the forums on Ceruleans site, there's a skinning forum where people tend to post the skins they are working on and sometimes you can find links to some really good skins there.. My personal favorite is COpusBlue, which was based on a skin by Bose I believe. Search for COpusBlue_RC4.tsz on the net and you may be able to find it.

Good Luck!!

On the DA site there is the full COpusblue and color pack for opus....those are made for T3. ALso true the ichate pack made by danimator. That has to be the best one.

In response to Citizen i9ub's comment "Your stupid, there is no problem with Trillian, its just you. I would approve if you died"...

Before you start calling people stupid I would recommend learning to properly write in the language you are posting in. It’s “you’re stupid”, not “your stupid.” A correct use of the latter might be: “I think your stupid post is a perfect example of irony.”

First of all..LoL..this is really ancient history...

But let me ask you this..if the person that could not spell actually came up and shot you with a firearm..as you lay there bleeding to death for those last few precious moments of life..would it really occur to you, or would you really care if the person that just ended your life could spell or not?..LMAO

Call me crazy but I think not...
