This has gotta be the best image editor that I've come across, an amazingly good, powerful and easy to use piece of software. If I could take this everywhere I go along with my suite of existing portable apps I would be very happy indeed!

Miranda IM

It might be a good idea to distribute a portable version of Miranda IM (http://www.miranda-im.org) rather than (or in addition to) gaim.

It only requires a single line to be modified in 'mirandaboot.ini' in order to make it save its settings in the current folder rather than in Documents and settings.

My version is less than 5MB extracted (with a large amount of optional plugins) and the full installer on their site is less than 1MB. It does not require GTK. Its only disadvantage that I know of to Gaim is that it is availible for Windows only.

I have not copared it directly with Gaim

I know this would be very intensive and difficult to do, but do you think that you could package WINE so that I can run my portable apps on a Linux box without WINE installed locally?
