im guessing AIM checks the size and crap on your computer, maybe AIM+ can filter out the scripts thatcheck for that stuff.....

further on...

maybe let AIM+ filter the check for GIF's and let it have SWF's

Although a good idea, I don't believe it's feasible. Even if you tricked AIM into reading the file as smaller than it really is, it would figure it out when it was sending the file. All communication is routed through AOL's servers or whatever before they send it to you. Unless of course you're directly connected. It would be pretty sweet to be playing Tic-Tac-Toe or something through someone's buddy icon though.
