Did you assign those pictures or are those avatars? If so how did you get the AIM ones to load?

I do not use AIM, sorry. All my contacts are on MSN, ICQ or Jabber.

Btw those are avatars. I only assign pictures to contact without avatars.

I've been using miranda for a long time and wanted to try out the clist modern with RussellC ModernClear skin. I have the same problem as deep_sky: I have a cream-colored box (the color of my classic .3dc scheme) instead of a nice list when I restart the program.

@deep_sky. Do you have windowblinds 5 beta running? Perhaps wb5 messes up the layers or something. If I deselect the magic pink as frame in options >> window and I restart miranda, everything looks ok.

Does anybody have a clue what causes the cream-colored box?

In order to restore the skin to a viewable state, I have to open up the database editor and blow away the CList module. Something in there keeps getting corrupted when the OS reboots, even if miranda is already closed. I tried closing the program and then shutting down, and i get the lovely cream colored box instead of a list upon reboot. I've installed the latest clist modern, will report back to see if that module still corrupts.

EDIT: No I do not use windowblinds at all. I did patch the uxtheme to try a theme out (and promptly went back to a modified classic). I updated clist modern and while the text looks better this time around, I still have to nuke that module with the database editor and then restart the program. Very annoying. Something in there is preventing the list from rendering, it gets that way when the os is shut down. I would have thought that the dat was completely out of memory once the program was shut down, but it still does this even if I shut down the program before the os.

EDIT no2: with the latest version of clist modern, any restart of the program results in the cream box, which must be fixed with the module nuke. deselecting the magic pink fixes nothing for me.

Argh, now IEview isn't working properly. When a message is recieved, the window doesnt scroll down automatically to show the latest message, I have to manually scroll it down every time I get a message, and most of the time the window doesnt flash as it should. Are there some settings that aren't set properly. I have the latest tabsrmm and ieview plugins.

The strange thing is that when I apply the ModernClear theme and don't select pin to desktop and restart Miranda, then everything is ok (apart from my contact window being op top of every window, even if window on top was deselected hmmmz).

Hey try to check the option "Bring to front" it should be beside the options "Pin to desktop" Its on teh far right. It seems to solve the problem for me. Good luck :cool:

Anyone has a good ie view template for windows vista style by kol?

Already have it. Got my msn avatars to work, but no icq avatars are showing :blink:

Edit: Icq avatars were actually working, just no one at list using an avatar :p

How do I get rid of the "extra icons" on the contact list? Just want to have status icons, name and then the avatar.

Here's my progress with clist_modern... My take on the Vista Glass, with the screenshot showing glowing mouseover for the Minimize button.

Here's the skin for download. I'm most likely not done yet, so expect a 1.1 release... :)

    • This Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 32GB RAM with RGB is a great deal for limited time

      By BlueScreenJunky · Posted

      No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.

    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
