SILVER 4987 Adium Matte Consecutive messages are not in the bubble
SILVER 7890 ANNA Header covers the top messages that are impossible to read

PLATINUM 1385 Candybars -
PLATINUM 3306 Cinematic -
BRONZE 4728 Dinosaur Comics No dinosaurs in the chat
PLATINUM 7366 Durarara -
GOLD 2141 Ethereal Files are unzipped in a subfolder. DefaultBackgroundIsTransparent key in Info.plist should be used
PLATINUM 2463 GoneDark/GoneDark Polarized -
GOLD 7435 Hard Bubbles Header covers the top messages but there is a button to hide the header. Some variants seems to be broken (White, White Bubbling, Modern, and relative Alt *)
BRONZE 8063 Lighty Does not show baloons
GOLD 7780 Mnmlsm Header covers the top messages but being semi-transparent you can read it
PLATINUM 6638 Mochastyle -
GOLD 5367 Model Portfolio The theme seems to be working, but there is an ugly line in the middle that should be on the side. The DisplayNameForNoVariant key from Info.plist should be taken into account in the kcm
PLATINUM 3629 Modern Bubbling/Modern Bubbling Compact Header covers the top messages but there is a button to hide the header
BRONZE 6218 NoteBoard Does not show consecutive status messages
GOLD 6938 Pretty Simple Scrollbar goes outside on top
PLATINUM 198 Pushpin/Pushpin Vintage -
RUBBISH 7997 Taz "Taz.AdiumMessageStyle" is invalid style! Renaming {i,I}ncoming becomes Platinum. We should check the colours of the status message using this theme!
Theme Name Rating Problems
Gone Dark (from Adium repo) Platinum Not sure if it is a bug but the "Jabber" text appears over the separator line using custom fonts
Mockie (from Adium repo) Platinum
Ravenant Platinum
Ruler Silver Consecutive messages are not in the bubble
Smooth Operator (from Adium repo) Silver Header covers the top messages but there is a button to hide the header. There are a few visual issues (different in different variants)
SmoothSeparateLines Gold The screenshots show that the sender should be displayed for every message, but it's not for consecutive message. I suspect that this could happen for other themes
Sticker Style Bronze Does not show baloons
Stockholm (from Adium repo) Gold The avatars seem to be outside of the window
Succint Gold Header covers the top messages that are hard to read
Taz Rubbish "Taz.AdiumMessageStyle" is invalid style! Renaming {i,I}ncoming becomes Platinum. We should check the colours of the status message using this theme!
aNon Bronze Does not show status messages
Coly Rubbish The name in the dropdown menu is wrong (Actually because the Info.plist file is info.plist instead). Default font is so small that it is impossible to read anything. Using a custom font aligment are completely wrong.
h4x0r Platinum
iMessages Platinum Very slow to load
minimal_mod (from Adium repo) Platinum Variant "SenderColor SingleLine" displays "%sender%" for status messages, for the rest is perfect, the header covers the top messages, but disappears automatically when you scroll to the top
Renkoo (default theme) Platimum
SimKete Silver Appended messages are wrong, The DisplayNameForNoVariant key from Info.plist should be taken into account in the kcm
xMous Gold Timestamps are very small with default font.
yMous Silver Timestamps are very small with default font. Displays "%sender%" for status messages.
xMous Bronze Timestamps are very small with default font. Status messages are not shown


Rating:

  • Platinum: Perfect
  • Gold: Perfect but with some minor glitch
  • Silver: Usable, but with some major display problem
  • Bronze: Almost usable but with some major bug (messages/status not displayed, etc) or serious graphic bugs
  • Rubbish: Unusable
