AIM icon to send email??

[marketsons1985]

Is it possible to make an AIM icon where you click it and it opens an email program to send an email??

I found this icon Here, and it would be really cool if it would actually email me. Is it possible??

Yes you can.

1)Right click on your desktop and click NEW then SHOTCUT. A box will open up asking for a Command Line, enter this word----> mailto:

2)A new box opens asking for a name for your shortcut, name it anything you want.

3) Once the shortcut has been created, right click on it and choose PROPERTIES and now you can change icon, BROWSE to the folder that contains the icon you are looking for.

Hope this helps...

You can't, however, make an AIM icon that another AIM user can be sent while IMing to you and have him/her click on it to send you email. You could use that icon on a webpage or something like that, but not make it a custom user icon in that manner in AIM.

Ladi.... all he/she is looking to do is use an AIM type of icon as the "send mail to." The only relation with AOL's AIM is the icon, nothing more

Are you a mind reader? It seems to me that both our interpretations of the question are valid...
