Empathy is a messaging program which supports text, voice, and video chat and file transfers over many different protocols. You can tell it about your accounts on all those services and do all your chatting within one application.
Themes listed down there working for Empathy and Adium, Empathy supports Adium Message Styles starting from 2.27.3 (if built with WebKitGtk support).
How to install Empathy Themes:
This on ubuntu 10.04 LTS
paste the theme folder to this directory “/usr/share/adium/message-styles”
Renkoo
Renkoo and Renkoo Naked have custom background support!!!! Dreams do come true!!
Paraphernalia
This message style is the realisation of design ideas I’ve had in my head over the past few months. It builds on the basic stripped-down code of a previous, unreleased theme.
Modern
This is the first version released and I have set it at v.8 because there are still a number of things I have not touched as of yet. You will probably get unexpected results with.

NoteBoard
GoneDark
Glossy, simple, dark… and light.
Changes
Added 2 new variants to GoneDark: Crimson & Steel.
Added new style called GoneDark Polarized, the albino brother of GoneDark.
GoneDark Polarized contains 5 themes: Arctic, Cosmos, Firelight, Margarita & Standard.
Added Service name to message window.
Fixed issue with long strings not wrapping to the next line.
Fixed the ability to change the background. Changing fonts still an issue.
GAIA Messageview
Graphics by Imrik, updated and reworked by myself.
Eclipse
Transparency abound, Eclipse can stand in front of anything. It’s fun, subtle, beautiful, utterly kick-ass, and any other adjective you want it to be.
Now with more variants and cleaner code.
Candybars
Candybars is a simple message view style without buddy icons and other unnecessary distractions. It comes in 25 different color variations.
Care to show how to do this for Linux Mint KDE? Would be nice.
Hello Jason,
it’s same installation instruction mentioned up there, but empathy Gnome GTK application. so, you will need to install empathy on linux mint KDE with extra dependencies.
Open Terminal then type
sudo apt-get install empathy
it will suggest you to install extra packages required to run empathy.
Good luck.
You don’t have the right permissions to extract archives in the folder “file:///usr/share/adium/message-styles”
@037cff492566601951189e216246ab31:disqus Require administration privileges to be able to modify anything in file system partition.
try su or sudo for terminal
or if you are using Ubuntu you can use “gksudo nautilus” to get access to graphical user interface for file manager as root user.
