BuddyIconArchive is online.
BuddyIconArchive: Help preserve AIM buddy icons!
If you found an old icon gallery or still have buddy-icon files, send them my way. I review every submission before anything enters the archive.
You: I found the icons...
Send me the best link you have.
It can be a webpage, direct image, ZIP, directory listing, or Wayback capture. I’ll record it for review. The archive won’t crawl it automatically.

Send me the icon files.
Choose as many as 500 GIF, JPEG, PNG, BMP, or WebP images, or upload one ZIP. Files may total up to 100 MB. The archive keeps the originals exactly as submitted.

Tell me what you have.
Use this for old drives, website backups, installers, very large collections, or material that doesn’t fit the regular uploader. A contact email is required so I can arrange the next step.
