Totally *DIS*agree.  I love Psi's Stellar iconset; it's clean, it's simple and 
most of all it's *NOT* crystal.

God why does everyone like their computers to look like everything is made out 
of Jolly Ranchers?!

I have no issues with it... KDE 3.1 and 3.3.

hehe...  I think it's useful if there were some better tips, not that I have 
any.

My wishlist:
- default show offline contacts to OFF
- remember window sizes ON
- use doubleclick ON
- hide roster window on startup ON
- turn off all the autopopups
- turn ON auto-authorize (for newbies, you have no idea how many people I've 
shown Psi to have no concept of authorizing users, they dismiss the dialog 
all the time)
- use small group headings
- set the default "treat incoming messages and chats as" to whatever they 
selected when they registered the account -- message or chat
