I'm sorry, but since I know of the "recent events", I must say something.

Whoever did what they did, I hope you're happy. It is not cool when a good friend of yours comes to you thinking you betrayed his trust. Especially when you had helped this same friend with the project. It's now been ruined for everyone else. So I hope whoever did this is enjoying themselves now. They got some serious owning coming there where when Penguin finds them. :shifty: Fear the squishy. :ninja:

He's now only going to make them for himself for personal use. So I wonder if him and Trojan even want this left open now?

This really sucks. I even played a small part by helping with some graphics. Who knows what else I could've helped with. It made me feel good knowing I was helping someone (a good friend) with something new he had made.

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. At least they'll still be finished for him at least. :)

I really like your design.

The last Msn Messenger skin i saw was kind of milky, but with somekind of taskbar at the bottom i think.

It looks great man. Put it together into a real Msn Messenger skin

My opinions:

Keep the original 'menu' around the display picture area. Use a smaller font and make the orange border less fruity-looking. Try making it gray?

I'd like to see the result.

And one more thing. I'd love it if you deleted or put more transperancy on the background in the contacts window.

Peace out and a happy new year.

RDD, some nice work there, but some of it cannot be done:

-The blue or orange top bar, the gradient must either be reduced into a smaller space or you must increase the size of the image.. each has its own after effects)

-The coloured online offline text, it cant be done because of the emoticon text tag on the names (you could remove it and then try to add font infor to the atom, but have fun with that :s )

-The tabbed browsing, I was working on using tabs and trying to rework the the msn today section, but I wont be releasing my works on that unless I get it to work.

btw, a blue version was made ;)

It is however unfortunate that some of it cannot be done without the use os MSN messenger Plus plugins, including the contact cards (og which you can only edit the default one, as the other is an xml feed)

I would however like to publicly appoligise to anyone Ive exploded at .. who did nothing wrong, its unfortunate that someone had to lie and ruin it all.

Trojan has his copy and what ever he does with it next is up to him, he will need help so someone with experience would probably be welcome I'm sure.

This will be where I leave this thread to trojan, good luck (Y)

edit: on a side note, I will not be accepting any requests for versions of the skins.. so please do not try by filling my pm box

No hard feelings. :blush: :p I understood everything you've said to me and the way you feel. :yes: ;) It'd be nice to see it live on thru Trojan and other people. :)

Good luck Trojan! (Y)

    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass.
    • Helium Browser 0.13.1.1

      By cork1958 · Posted

      FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • U.S. delegation throws away all burner phones and gifts from China before takeoff

      By AsherGZ · Posted

      See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      By QuantumBigfoot · Posted

      He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
