The default Gaim sounds aren't my cup of tea. Does anyone have any ideas for catchy sounds that will get my attention?

Video game themed sounds would be really nice, in particular :D

I was thinking about using some sounds from South Park.

Particulary: "They took our jobs!" - Workers "Oh Hamburgers!" - Butters "AAAAHHHH!!!! - Tweak

Some of the Unreal Tournament announcements and the peon responses from Warcraft III would be good as well.

The best sounds are quotes talking to you. Hands down. Well, for IM anyway. Maybe I 'm just am old school geek

I think it would be cool to use some of the Nintendo Wii sounds in Gaim. They sound so clear and cool. But why stick to Gaim? I should make my whole desktop use Wii sound effects. :D

The only problem is managing to rip the sounds from the system; not an easy task by any means.
