Yahoo IM environment

I can't actually find the IMV anywhere. Has anyone else managed to download it yet?

You don't need to download it, it is already o the program. Go to an instant message with yourself or someone else and click the thing that says IMvirement(sp?). Then go to the catergory 'Interactive Fun'. Then click Neopets and you'll be using it :)

Now that made sense, because I just browsed all the 55 available IMv's and I can't see it. :P

It's not in that list, there is just Doodle, Photosharing and the crystal ball thing. It's kind of annoying, I really want to use it!

Just used it to talk to mysel ( :P ) and Neopets is there, along with princess diaries etc.

Now I wonder what are the keywords for animations. Hasee is one, makes one of the hasee jump.

Some more key words are:

doughnutfruit
sloth
hiya
mynci
erupt
fall
grarrl
green
volcano
petpet
hasee bounce
neopoints
np
hit buzz

There is also a red petri that will randomly fly across your screen during the conversation. I've tried about a million more words and can't find any more key words, but I'll still keep trying :-P
Also, you can't type two or more keywords on the same line ("hiya mynci" for example), they will cancel eachother out and nothing will happen.

EDIT: Added in the words found on the other thread here.

When you open an Instant Message, click on IMVironment, then to See All IMVironments, then Comics and Characters. The Neopets one is in there. It's also in the Interactive Fun one on mine. Did you download the new YIM update?

Yeah, that's probablythe problem... This IMvironment is only available for the new version of Yahoo Messenger. Download the upgrade, and try again. ;)

Okay, thanks for telling me how. Couldn't find it before, it was driving me nuts...

Anyone have any spiffy screenies. I don't have YIM. :(

Same here..
Plus, I know no one who uses it, so it's pointless to own.

Some screenies (excuse me for not remembering how to use hyperlinks using bbc code)

Choosing the IMVironment

The pteri flying across the screen:

Grarrl - He comes out from left, beats his chest then walks off towards the right:

Sloth - the background changes for a few seconds:

hiya - an island grundo comes out and waves:

mynci - a mynci swings across the screen:

volcano, erupt and clicking the "buzz" button all make the volcano erupt.

fall and green makes green leaves fall down on the screen.

np and neopoints makes coins fall down on the screen

The rest of the words on the list above make the hasee's bounce up and down.
