i tried that, it wont work :( . wat file do i save it as b4 converting? and do i convert by renaming the filetype to .ico?

[karma_police]

The size is 16x16.

Create them with Photoshop or whatever and then save it as PNG.

To convert the PNG to ICO you can use Aveiconifier, Axialis IconWorkshop, or I remember a thread here in neowin on how to convert PNG to ICO and ICO to PNG, just do a search.

On the containers tab in the options, choose "use single window mode". Then, in the IM window, goto the other tabsrmm options and simply hide the tab bar. That, or use the chat plugin from the author of IEView called Scriver

[Dallas]

Oh that makes me so happy. Thanks I didn't even see that tab. Im digging this IEview..

I must say that customizing Miranda is much more addicting when everything works nicely. I like where I've got it to at the moment.

Wow, nice!

Would you mind telling me what Visual Style and template you are using?

Also, I can't get that shadow effect with my miranda im, I've restarted it just like it says it may need.

Thanks

[nkj]

Visual style is clearlooks and template is simpleboxes . the template is on the the Miranda website and the visual style is in the neowin visual style section

ive got the conversation window background so its the same as my wallpaper, and aligned it properly, making it look like the conversation window is transparent, and im using smooth operator ieview so i can still see the text clearly.

but is there any way to remove the border completely from that window. if that is possible it would look very cool. new messages would just seem to appear on the desktop.

[leetl90]

i don't think there is such a thing yet

[john fru]

:( thats unfortunate. oh well, hopefully someone will work out how to do it sometime soon

[-scorpio-]

i think you can do something with reshacker ..

[john fru]

any ideas how scorpio? i wouldnt really know where to start

[C. Holtz]

Alright, I can't figure out anything with this thing. I've tried installing other people's clist_nicer things or whatever the hell they're called, but it doesn't change anything. I've tried playing around a little bit, but I've never really even tried to customize anything in general. Could anyone help? All I really want is custom icons and transparency.

edit: and rounded edges, groups in different little bubbles or whatever. That's just wicked cool. I don't really care about the actual IM window though, I actually like it how it is.

Whats the best popup plugin to use? I just want something to say 'SoAndSo is online', like MSN Messenger does.

Also, do you people use sounds? Whats a good sound set? All the ones I've tried seem... crap.
