AIM Expression Creator

Enter the values and select the files you want to use to create your AIM expression. See Field Information for more information about the available fields. The AIM expressions created using this AIM expressions creator tool will not be saved by us, unlike some other sites, so you can create as many as you can without ever releasing them. Creation of AIM expressions is very easy with this easy creator.

Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.

Note: Compiled AIM expressions should pop up a file save dialog. Save the file as an .arf file to use it. The file is actually a .zip archive, but only renamed to .arf.

Note: To use your created AIM expression, upload it to a website, and then use the following URL to install it:
aim:getexpression?url=http://www.example.com/example.arf
Replace http://www.example.com/example.arf with the correct URL to your AIM expression.

Note: Please make sure the total of all uploaded files is 6 MB or less, or it will fail.
