Yup, you can choose your buddy icon. It's in the preferences option somewhere in GAIM

Umm.. I don't think there is.. There's only an option to show buddy icons, but that just make that msn logo in front of your friends name get bigger.. It didn't provide an option to pick our own picture. Can you tell me what version of gaim u're using? I'm using the one provided by gnome in ubuntu 5.04 (gaim 1.1.4)

Thanks for your help, and I've solved this silly problem myself. I didn't aware that they have another options on tools -> account -> modify. It's hidden over there.
