While we wait for someone to take up the Trillian port I made a quick bitmap to replace an existing skin to make the outer appearance of Trillian and the message windows "Codename Opus"ish. This will only work on stixe skins using the minimal interface. I'm using the Opus OS skin that Armlann on deviantART made.

Simply copy the file to the \images directory of the skin you want to modify and rename it to "SmallWindow.bmp". Then open settings.ini and make the following change (this changes the background color of the Contact List headers) ;

Blue

<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-red ?'141'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-green	'162'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-blue ?'198'>

Dusk

<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-red ?'128'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-green	'135'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-blue ?'158'>

Green

<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-red ?'149'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-green	'158'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-blue ?'118'>

Deviant

<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-red ?'132'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-green	'153'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-blue ?'140'>

Alpha

<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-red  '129'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-green	'143'>
<!ENTITY iniListTitleBackColor-blue  '170'>

OPaul,

Could you make normal sized window bitmaps for blue and/or alpha color schemes please (or even just direct me how to make them myself)?

Also, does anyone know how to modify the window control graphics (minimize, maximize, close, etc) from the Opus OS skin to use ones from Opus 3.0? It seems like this should be somewhat trivial. Thanks for any info.

    • Windows 95 offered the ability to add and edit the right click menus, on a per file type basis. This feature seems to be missing in the new file explorer. Are they bringing it back as a "new" feature?
    • It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.
    • What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
    • Outlook classic is inherently better than new outlook, for a number of reasons. That said, if the only reason people need office is to read email, they should just use thunderbird.
