The Adium Random Buddy Icon script offers users a simple and free solution to add some fun to their chat sessions by randomly selecting a new buddy icon every time they connect.
To use Random Buddy Icon, simply open Finder and navigate to the "Pictures" folder located in your Home directory. Create a new folder called "icons" and fill it with a selection of images. Ideally, you should crop these images into squares using your preferred graphics editor. JPEG format is recommended, but other formats should work just fine.
After preparing your images, download and extract the AppleScript. Place this script in the folder ~/Library/Application Support/Adium 2.0/Scripts/. Next, open Adium's Preferences and locate the "Events" tab. Create a new event for "You Connect", and choose "Run an AppleScript". Browse to the location of the AppleScript you just added and click OK to confirm your selection. Close the preferences window and enjoy your new, randomly generated buddy icons!
