If you don't have it it's because either you don't have Avatar Service or your version of Modern is so out-dated that it doesn't have avatar support yet (i don't remember what version he merged it from pescuma's build). My guess is both, since you evidently aren't using a nightly build of Miranda (which is why the newer version of Modern isn't showing up in your list).

hey, where did you get the hmmxp skin??

I just took some other guy's skin and deleted all the images from it except for the one that sets the lighter-coloured area in the middle.

I guess. Just this once....

Put this in a /skins/ folder or something. I don't know how well it'll work on anybody else's computer, you might have to play around with it a little bit. The background image relies on the My Details plug-in being there i think, so if the top part looks screwed up you might have to edit it in Paint or something.

Man, some of you guys with really nice themes should upload packages for us to download. I really hate going through all this trouble just to make my IM client look nice, and even when I try I can never get anything to look right.

Some of you guys have really damned nice layouts, though. I'm impressed.

Just wondering if there is any resource that has all the best skins, themes, icons, etc. for miranda components such as clistmodern, popup, ieview, etc.?

Unrelated to that, I was wondering what the best way to get mouseover statuses and maybe even away messages on the buddy list like GAIM. Also, is there a reliable method to do metacontacts like gaim?

I'm having trouble with the Tipper plugin now. The tooltip for whatever reason only appears behind the contact list, so I cannot see it. How can I fix this?

Also, how can I create new groups on my buddy list or even rearrange the existing ones? It seems all I can do is put one group inside of another. I want to move certain groups higher on my buddy list, but am not able to do it for some reason.

In the Container Options under Use Private Title Format, where it has %n etc.

I went through the alphabet trying to get it to show the nickname I gave that person instead of there actual screen name. If you have any ideas or anything i'd appreciate it!

someone please help.

i downloaded the clist_modern plugin and it comes in 2 new rars...i have tried both but it doesnt show up in my plugins menu. How can i get this to work?

The clist_modern plugin does not work with the current stable version of miranda im; unless you have an old version of clist_modern. You can use the testing builds of miranda im to use the updated clist_modern, it comes pack with it the last time i check.

okay i got skins up and running but now i am confsued with ieview and tabs.

How can i get a theme to work for ieview...there are 2 options...and i have tried both yet when i restart miranda neither work. I downloaded a ieview skin off of deviant art and it didnt work. Also, what is a good minimal theme for ieview that will work with a lot of different themes.

my second question is if there is a plugin for convo tabs like GAIM has. If so, how can i get this to work?

Thanks guys,

where is the option to use ieview as the default chat log? I couldnt find it :(

@bsommer: Message Sessions > Message Window > click on the "Message log" tab there scroll down a bit and select the option "Use IEView as default message log"

Now you should be able to use IEView :D

@Daeron Tin?viel: You cant remove it from the message windows as far as I know.

And cant you just use the other skins for clistnicer layerd?

    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.

      This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.

    • This new cabinet design lets you run AMD, Intel, and Nvidia PCs inside one case

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      This new cabinet design lets you run AMD, Intel, and Nvidia PCs inside one case by Sayan Sen At Computex 2026 earlier this month, AMD announced a couple of new X3D processors for both sockets AM4 and AM5 as it confirmed the support extension of the latter till 2029. And although Intel didn't unveil any new desktop chips, the company's Core Ultra 200S Plus series is relatively new too. Let's say though that you want the best of both worlds simultaneously, and instead of running two different systems, you can have both running together side-by-side, or rather on top of one another. That's exactly what Thermaltake's CAPO X dual system is made for doing. While it's not exactly mandatory to run AMD with Intel, or vice versa, you get the idea. As you can see in the render above, it is essentially like a double-decker PC case that is capable of holding two microATX (mATX) motherboards. Even running just one discrete graphics card in a PC can get toasty, so you may be wondering how well the cooling is designed on the CAPO X, Thermaltake has confirmed, as is evident from the marketing promo image above, that the case supports up to two 360 mm AIO liquid coolers. 420mm is not supported. In total there is room for 13 120mm case fans. In terms of I/O (input/output) options for the two systems, there are naturally two places for those ports, one at the top and one at the very bottom of the chassis in the front panel. In terms of use cases, there are many possibilities. Thermaltake itself, for example, highlights how one system can be your main PC while the other could be the AI agent PC. Another example given is how it can be used to stream and game simultaneously with dedicated systems instead of hogging one with the entire load. Nothing regarding pricing or availability was said.
