Aim 6.1.16.1 Released

Some new features have been added to Aim 6.1. The most notable is docking the buddy list, adding images in profiles and alphabetize sorting in a group. More images of Aim 6.1 are available at Bumped.org Image Gallery. I’ll hold off reviewing until the Beta is finished. Instead here are some side comments for the User Interface.

–Buddy Info window is still too big
–Buddy Info Status area is too big
–Kudos to Away Message shown in Buddy Info
–Jeers to Buddy Info now having one carriage return from the top
–Nice allowing Smileys in Buddy Info
–Color Changer sticks out form the UI. Needs a better Icon.
–Color Changer needs to also change the shade of the Grey Area too
–Modules need to be Optional
–Cheers to Mobile IM in Settings Window
–Screen Name Format needs to be activated for AOL users
–Great! Adding Mobile to Buddy Quickview makes it easier than Address List.
