The home page says "IMVU works with the major IM networks and more." where
more is linked to this page:

http://www.imvu.com/catalog/web_info.php?section=Info&topic=workswith

Now, I admit we won't win any web design awards, but I think your criticism
is a little harsh.

Anyway, I think you do have a point, and we'll add a Jabber icon to the
front page. Any suggestions as to which logo would be most appropriate?
Should we use this one: http://www.jabberpowered.org/logos.html or this one:
http://www.jabber.org/images/jsf-banner.png ?
