For some time now I’ve been using a all-in-one pack for ICQ, Yahoo, MSN/Live, Aim and Gtalk from

Download it here and then copy the archive’s contents to Program Files\Pidgin\pixmaps\pidgin\emotes and then choose the pack from Tools - Preferences - Smiley Themes.
Doug, click on "Download it here", which brings up a page that describes the file, then click Download. I checked the link and it works without problem.
