So, this is probably what the Final will look like.

Please leave your thoughts/comments about this template before Russellc codes it into an .ivt file!


Thanks,

IE View is a plugin that works alongside tabsrmm to replace the chat area with a CSS template. It allows for some really nice customization, not seen in any other windows based IM apps, including Trillian.

much better tongue.gif but you should work a little more on that status notification

Awesome, I'd buy it. ok maybe not buy, but at least use it, and be in constant awe of the awesomeness.

oh noes, i think it would be better without the black in the back, maybe try to make a transparent glass effect where that black is? like longhorn glass. i dont know if its possible with Css

could you release 2 diff versions, one with and one without the black?
btw these are great. wish i knew css hmm.gif
karma_police
yes it's possible to do the glass effect
Hidea
Good idea, I'll try that now.

mhhh, the outgoing/ingoing messages look very good, but I think you should add to the events the glas effect and the time yes.gif

Or maybe just an 'Other Releases' type forum, where all other releases can go.. unsure.gif

A suggestion:

I'd lower the avatar to give it a little more space between the outer frame and the avatar.. it looks a little crammed right now.. but that's just my opinion... other than that it looks great!

oh wow i want this in my belly :growl:

progress on coding:
user posted image

some things have been taken off due to some limitations which are needed give way to some functionality

outgoing and "glass" styles will simply be a changing of images, so that should be quick..expect a possible, yes that says -possible-, release by tomorrow night (maybe). if it doesnt become a full release by tomorrow night, then wait another day, i'm not doing any public "beta" releases.

for me, a full release includes at least one style and at least one colour scheme to actually be a full release. updates will include more styles (glass, if not finished at time of first release) and colour schemes
russellc
well here's another 'progress report':
