We need more information in order to figure out what's going wrong.

Please read http://trac.adium.im/wiki/ReportingBugs for details.

Also, please do not send bug reports to this mailing list. If we accepted bug 
reports via e-mail we would be inundated with them. (To give you an idea, right 
now there are 13,875 tickets on the website --- imagine getting several e-mails 
for each one.)

You can read about your current progress here:

I suggest that you request features online. We have a guide here:

http://trac.adium.im/wiki/RequestingFeatures

1. Voice and Audio Support
(See above.)

2. Snippest
This feature could certainly be added, but I do not know how much faster it is 
to switch from the keyboard to the mouse, navigate to a tiny popup button (see 
Fitts' Law), and then select it from a menu.

You could achieve this with an Xtra. Here is one that randomly picks a quote 
and inserts it in the message, you could use it as a starting point:

3. New Design
i. Toolbar icons moved to right hand side
You can do this from the View menu by selecting "Customize Toolbar". Then drag 
the "Flexible Space" element to the left side of the toolbar.

ii. New toolbar icons
Adium 1.4 has a few new toolbar icons designed by George Lambrou.

iii. You can change the wallpaper
You can do this under Preferences > Appearance and check "Use a custom 
background" at the bottom. Or you can just drag a background image onto the 
window. This feature has been there for a while.

iv. You can change the color scheme
Many themes have a "variant" which offer different color options. But it is not 
the most intuitive thing to make custom color schemes, I agree.

v. You can change the font
This too is customizable under Preferences > Appearance, just press "Set 
Font..." under "Text Display."

4. Bug-free

A pipe dream, unfortunately, and a claim that would be hard to defend. However, 
your estimate of 200 bugs fixed is pretty good, since according to the Roadmap 
we've got about that many tickets closed for 1.4.
