This skin is to accompany the visual style Codename Opus by b0se. Currently I have only done a blue variation and have no plans for the others.

Known bugs;

Progress bars right border missing (?).

Credits go to b0se for his great visual style.

is there a reason why your skin has no hide button in message windows?

its enabled in my interface but i still dont see one. all other skins i use have it.

I removed it because it was getting in my way and I personally never use it. You can put it back by adding the following code;

Line 1434

<!ENTITY ini4MMCPlacement	'<rect><left num="77" width="1"/><right num="60" width="1"/><top num="3" height="0"/><bottom num="20" height="0"/></rect>'>

Line 1439

<!ENTITY iniSmall4MMCPlacement	'<rect><left num="51" width="1"/><right num="40" width="1"/><top num="3" height="0"/><bottom num="14" height="0"/></rect>'>

Line 1444

<!ENTITY iniPanel4MMCPlacement	'<rect><left num="58" width="1"/><right num="44" width="1"/><top num="2" height="0"/><bottom num="16" height="0"/></rect>'>

What do you mean it's enabled in your interface? Is there an option in the Preferences somewhere to turn it on and off?

I am glad someone finally made one.  But I use the Alpha scheme; how do I go about changing this skin to that?

You'd have to change all the .png files and make some minor changes to settings.ini. To get to these files open the .tsz file in a WinRAR or whatever compression application you use and extract the contents.

Don't mean to take away from this skin cause it is great but there is an alpha scheme variation available in the trilly forums now.

This will probably be the final version. There are few things left unskinned that are currently not being used by Trillian, so if in the future those things get implemented I'll go ahead and skin them. I'm not sure how the video related stuff looks because I don't have a webcam with me so if it doesn't look good if someone could send me a picture of the area I'll go ahead and change the colors to look better with the rest of the skin. There's also the little black border on the progress bar, if I ever find a fix for that I'll go ahead and post it. Feel free to post any other suggestions and if I like them I'll change them.

Armlann is working on an OpusOS skin and I think Smooth L is working on the other colors for Codename Opus. You can find more information on both of these two here.

well in Trillian\stixe\interface\Default\

in settings.ini you can have it enabled or disabled.

heres its code:

<!ENTITY ShowHideButtoninPrivMsg '0>

"0" disables it for the interface, "1" enables the hide button.

you can also do this for other interfaces.

I hope this is OK with the author of the skin - if not, just remove the link.

I added the changes to my settings.ini to enable the hide button, but I was disappointed that it was the same as the close button which doesn't make much sense to me. So I modified the button images to have a proper hide button. You can download the skin from the link below.

    • Just another reason (aside from many others) not to use Edge. Firefox 153.0b5 DEx64 has a similar feature added recently in prior builds that I will turn off at some point when I get around to it. It's the new "Something looks suspicious" page that pops up here and there. It cleverly hides itself between web pages that I've actually visited; as a result, you know, of selecting a web page and telling the browser where to go. The interesting thing is that it does not produce these warnings from pages that I, as the only intelligent user of the browser in my system, have ever directed the browser to open! What seems to be happening is that the browser looks at all the goofy ad links on a web page I do actually open and selects one that "looks suspicious" and then creates the "something looks suspicious" web page, which is neatly inserted, as mentioned, between web pages my RB ("real brain") has directed the browser to load in a session. The thing is, I usually look at links I am considering to follow before I ask the browser to load them, and in cases I have noticed where the link does indeed look suspicious, most of the time I will choose to not follow the link at all. Doesn't everyone do this or something similar? I am picky about what I voluntarily load... (I don't like links that start off fine, with a site designaiton that seems normal enough but then is followed by indecipherable alphanumeric strings many, many lines long, etc. I tend to reject those because they look suspicious. They may not be, but I don't care... I'll stay with Firefox, of course, if for no other reason than they usually let you turn off the junk you don't like. And because it isn't Edge... But at some point Microsoft will come to realize that putting your bookmarks on the left side is a Good Thing for a lot of people, just as Microsoft discovered when it had the bright idea of nailing the Windows taskbar to the bottom of the screen, when for decades Microsoft browsers had left that placement up to the user. They have finally reversed the obscenity of that decision. Finally.
    • Google was using the old CATPCHAs data to train their LLMs. What is the say they won't use this camera data of users to train their LLM? these companies need some strict regulations!
    • Depends on what you need. Might be a bit clearer on what you plan to do with it. Sort of a waste if you get the newest and greatest, but don't know how to use it.
