PyX Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Holy crap Trojan... your skins are so nice. I wish I had build 425, but unfortunately, I have the newest one (604 I believe, can't remember?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-penguin Veteran Posted February 28, 2005 Veteran Share Posted February 28, 2005 where dose everyone get those cool msn messenegr status icons from?? 585544096[/snapback] They usually make them, tends to be the way, but sometimes you'll find they liked something similar and recreate it to use in msn.

fukachu Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 (edited) everyone is using those same ones though so i figured they got them from somewhere.. please im not new to playing with graphics etc :p its just because everyone was using the same ones that wave 11 type look i was wondering if they were available.. quicker to download those then to make them again in photoshop to be more specific the ones trojan is using in his mockup, where to get those? btw as for msn royal skin i have already been making one for about 2 weeks which stefanka has given me permission for.. go to the addy below to see a preview http://www.afizicalpresence.com/msn.php im updating it right now for 604 hopefully done tomorrow night Edited February 28, 2005 by Fizical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PyX Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Niiice! But I wondered where we could download the first skin of trojan that Enigma-Penguin coded, since it's probably the one that catched my attention the most ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xantheus Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Damn, Penguin and Trojan i love those skins. Wish i could do those, i love spicing up my Msn. Release! Release! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Topham Hatt Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Can someone update me to all this stuff? Have any skins for 425 been released? The ones in this thread look really nice :D Thanks, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larney Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 ok I updated the Contact list (fixed buttons updated the song announce and so on)and I added a conversation window mx2 was a good sport :happy: there will be one more screen shot after this before I start making the actual theme (I may redo the icons I'm not sure) 585540967[/snapback] Nice design but sloppy conversation with Mx2. You blatantly paid him or made him say that as he aint that nice har har :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enigma-penguin Veteran Posted February 28, 2005 Veteran Share Posted February 28, 2005 Watch out for png 1090,1083 and 1084 when it comes to the main window Rickie, the resizing is really tricky when you try and do those curves. Also with 1084 it crosses the whole window so you may want to go for a) tranparent edges or b) include the curve into 1084. you're well on your way tho (Y) When it comes to modifying the chat window dont forget to resize 804 in the ui files, its set at height=21. wizzer, Xantheus and PsykX, I released an early version a few pages back.. but the skins are on hold till we see msn 7 final... then you'll see them all. I just didnt see the point in remaking them everytime a build came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porky Posted March 3, 2005 Author Share Posted March 3, 2005 The icons I used in my third mockup are over at Aero-Soft. (Link) Thanks for reminding me, actually.

fukachu Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 thanks trojan.. i'll need to ask for permission, im thinking i'll still work on your skin as well just to see what i can come up with.. so far been finishing my royal with RDD but rickie is doing a pretty good job on his so i might not step into that ring :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fukachu Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 i really need to stop leaving so much time between my posts so i can edit... anyway.. here is a screenshot of what i've got so far (conversation window is finished except for 2 icons) now with this contact list.. i ahvent change any icons or the clours in the top section yet and excuse the headphones.. i was just playing with colour.. so dont worry that top section will be fixed up... anyway between the top section and the contact list and around the entire contact list is a 1px line.. i have removed this in the past i believe but not i cant find it.. second there is the grey bit on the left side.. next to the display pictures.. where is that to remove? i've never see it b4 in skinning msn. cheers EDIT: obviously the scroll bars will be skinned.. there will be 2 editions if i get permission, with the msn icons as seen in trojans mock up and this one in screen shot.

macmax Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 will any of it make it when the final 7 comes out ? or will it remain only on the papers more like a theory than a practical use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tried out two methods, no luck >_< I'll try again, but Im not sure it can be done (not well anyways). mohan_168, alot of this stuff can be done in practice, anything ive shown is in working condition.

MSN6 Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 All the mods are nice and cant wait for the release..... :yes: Hope the release is soon after the release of MSN Messenger 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fukachu Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 i find it strange that it doesnt work as the conversation window allows for this.. this could be a problem in making it apprear nice.. will see what can be dug up maybe it can be done.. not looking positive so far.. msn messenger needs a little more flexibility... its pretty damn good atm but some more would be great. but now need to update this for the new version of MSN Messenger that was just released.

enigma-penguin Veteran Posted March 4, 2005 Veteran Share Posted March 4, 2005 Yeah, it would be nice to even have about 3 pixels, but no matter what I do, I cant get around the bottom part of that window :/, I gotta start updating too >_< .

enigma-penguin Veteran Posted March 4, 2005 Veteran Share Posted March 4, 2005 Im posting up a quick beta version of this skin for the 632 build, the original concept was by GHL (for gmessenger/codename nexus) and there will be no final release till I can get his permission. There is a word of warning though, a patch was tried and people couldnt get it to work 100% of the time, so the file is a heavily rar'ed gig. At about 5mb its nothing to scoff at if you are 56k, so without further delay. there is still work to do, but some might want to give it a go... and people hate waiting (since the other skins were such a teaser so long, ill give you the preview) The Preview Release There will be a proper patch next time, I promise.
