I have made a smiley theme based on Tango icons, but it&#8217;s not yet in the repositories. Here&#8217;s what it looks like: You can install it by downloading this file: conversations-tango-smilies_0.1_all.deb, and copying it over to [...]]]></description>

Also a new feature present: the Profile button in the Status Menu gets replaced by Tweakr&#8217;s own button (which looks identical), so that you won&#8217;t have get your Status Menu too crowded.]]></description>
