Freedom Phantom Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 No previews as of yet. Still screwing with the XML file. Anyway :p To the part you are probably looking to. News.. The theme. Its a total overhaul of the yahoo 6 skin, using gant and reluna based images and styles. Pending Manhattan's permission of course, Bant O.o just isnt around any more so im just going to go ahead with that part. This may take a while though. School, work and life have priorities over this. So ill do it in my free time. Shouldnt take me too godawfully long, seeing as the typical yahoo skin pack only has 20 or so images. What takes time is the XML editing and adjusting. Yahoo uses XML to show the messenger and contact list via the size and shape and dimensions of images given. If an image is off a few degrees, it shows. Anyway :p Expect it eventually. Oh things like Emoticons and things contained within the ypager.exe will not be modded. Due to.. well O.o Skins dont adjust them. You do. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/228293-yahoo-gant-yahoo/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd ask him...cos that aint right. As an artist it makes me cringe to think about someone using my images without even asking, just rude man. Doesnt really matter what i think anyway, Neomods won't let u get away with that IMO Edited October 10, 2004 by vSyler Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/228293-yahoo-gant-yahoo/#findComment-584704476 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freedom Phantom Posted October 10, 2004 Author Share Posted October 10, 2004 -_- From what I saw with the Reluna nolight mod and the his info on DeviantArt. He is why I say he isnt around much anymore. Which I'll just contact B0se and ask him if I can use OpusLuna as my inspiration. Doesnt matter me, I wasnt just going to go on a fools errand to ask someone that isnt around.

Stylez Ray. Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 I wouldn't care about bant's permission like he cares about people here and about his work...he stopped his activities in this community, gives bad comments about peoples' work if he posts in a thread, so give a damn about him and just post your mod when you are finished...he isn't anymore, I would call him dead, even if you would contact him I'm sure he wouldn't answer because he also doesn't care anymore about what people do in this community, that's how it seems to me!

Freedom Phantom Posted October 14, 2004 Author Share Posted October 14, 2004 (edited) Update. Still alot of work to do, but im hammering out the icon tool bar. O.o I see the dead image and it will be fixed :p Just have to mess with the XML. Also I HAVE gotten permission (odd way) from Bant to use his ReLuna style :) As I said, Still have alot of work to go.

couture Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 I'm glad to see someone is making an effort to skin yahoo, i played around with the xml files, it's a lot harder than trillian or any other program that uses xml files for that matter :s i would focus more on the messenger window itself...personally i have everything in the message window turned off and not showing including avatars...nonetheless i would still like to see more progress on this. Good Luck! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/228293-yahoo-gant-yahoo/#findComment-584731049 Share on other sites More sharing options...
