 Hi,

 There is an option of the MSN protocol that I dislike (i'm more Jabber
 fanboy): custom emoticons. Lot of people use them to send me plenty of
 images for nothing.

 As Pidgin allow to set custom emoticons, it would be interesting to set
 the selected Pidgin emoticon able to be sended instead of just characters.

 I will try to explain that (excuse my english).
 If i write ":)",
 ":)" is sended via the IM protocol
 On the other side, the client that receives  the ":)" will output it as an
 emoticon.
 What would be intersting is to send the smiley of the pack i setted in the
 pidgin settings:
 If I write: ":)" and ":)" exists in my emoticon theme, so
 ":)" WITH the picture is sended to the other client.

 In short: I want my contacts to see my pidgin's emoticons.

 Thanks
