 hi there,

 given:
 debian testing distribution. pidgin 2.5.4 comes with 'small smileys' theme
 (this actually might happen a version or two earlier, but i'm pretty sure
 i've done nothing to install it myself).

 steps to reproduce:
 1. switch from 'big' to 'small' smiley theme (or vice versa) in
 tools->preferences->smiley themes;[[BR]]
 2. switch to 'conversations' tab (without closing 'preferences' dialog)
 and try to insert the new smiley with help of formatting toolbar;[[BR]]
 3. notice the pidgin crashing all the way down to desktop.[[BR]]

 NOTE: if 'preferences' dialog is closed and reopened again, inserting the
 newly chosen smiley works as a charm.

Comment(by x_den):
