1337 Bronze Does not show consecutive status messages
Adium Matte Silver Consecutive messages are not in the bubble
ANNA Silver Header covers the top messages that are impossible to read
Andromeda Gold Header covers the top messages but there is a button to hide the header
Candybars Platinum
Cinematic Platinum
Dinosaur Comics Bronze No dinosaurs in the chat
Durarara Platinum
Ethereal Gold Files are unzipped in a subfolder. DefaultBackgroundIsTransparent key in Info.plist should be used
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
GoneDark/GoneDark Polarized Platinum
Hard Bubbles Gold 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 *)
Lighty Bronze Does not show baloons
Mnmlsm Gold Header covers the top messages but being semi-transparent you can read it
Mochastyle Platinum
Mockie (from Adium repo) Platinum
Model Portfolio Gold 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
Modern Bubbling/Modern Bubbling Compact Platinum Header covers the top messages but there is a button to hide the header.
NoteBoard Bronze Does not show consecutive status messages
Pretty Simple Gold Scrollbar goes outside on top
Pushpin/Pushpin Vintage 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
