I'm sorry i could not inquire about the bug in detail. I tried my best however someone i know (immichaelkthx) already wrote a report and took screen shots. After testing i notice it only happens if you enable logging. I've had the same problem on SuSE linux as well as ubuntu but, NOT WINDOWS XP OR VISTA, While logging etc. It's a strange bug because when logging in plain text or HTML it wont log a image. For example if i connect to a friend and they send me a picture ill see it then but as soon as the window is closed it wont be logged. I don't understand WHY it tries handling the icons which are in .png format when it doesn't handle any other image extension sent thru direct connect. One of the reasons why dumped suse for ubuntu was because of the Pidgin bug.. However i notice it's not centralized to one operating system.. Ubuntu just does it more frequently. By saying "lacks information we need" ?? what do you mean? Surely several others have reported this; where icons look like envelopes and in their drop down box they are all X's. Also, it told me to be brief. Not write a thesis on it. In the grand scheme of things my report wasn't lacking at all, the linux devs are.
