Is there a plugin to show a sign in dialog for msn?

One to show a window or something to type user-id and password as I don't like to set it in the options.

This program never fail to make me find stuff in the options for hours.

Now how do I make the main window show up in the taskbar.

I think this is my third time installing Miranda in the course of this few years.

Just can't stick with it as its too customizable and I'm always lost in it.

The addons website is kind of messy and I can't seem to find things like a plugin for the sign in window.

Why I installed again?

Maybe my urge to shake off the bloated MSN Messenger came over me again.

I would suggest starting off with miranda pack: http://www.miranda-pack.com/

Then work your way around skinning and other tweaks.

i installed the miranda- pack, but it doesn't have aol on it, only icq and jabber, how do i put aol support on it?

Alright, after a week of research I found out how to work with Miranda, lol. (The developers should really make it a little easier to work with)

The above picture has four things. The dark box on the right is my friends list for AIM, the middle are my current plugins, the top box on the left is the message I get everytime I sign on and the bottom left box is the message box I open up to send someone a message.

I have a few questions:

1) How do I get rid of the SNAC error?

2) I had TabsRMM installed but every time I would type a message to anyone, Miranda would stop working and I needed to restart it. So now I use srmm, which doesn't have many options. Anyone have any suggestions on what happened?

3) How can I skin the message window? I'd like to get the same color as the main contacts window.

I've installed popup plus trying to get the popus to show up whenever someone logs on or sends me a message, but i dont see any popup, the miranda icon in my systray just blinks.... any help?

You need Message Notify: http://addons.miranda-im.org/details.php?a...ile&id=2415

and NewStatus notify: http://addons.miranda-im.org/details.php?a...file&id=207

i installed the miranda- pack, but it doesn't have aol on it, only icq and jabber, how do i put aol support on it?

Put the AIM dll in your plugins folder: http://www.snaphat.com/aim/download.htm

1) I never heard/read of the SNAC error...maybe its a Vista thing given that you're hardly using any extra plugins.

2) A good alternative to Tabsrmm is Scriver: http://addons.miranda-im.org/details.php?a...ile&id=1885

3) It looks like only some alpha builds of TabSRMM support this right now: http://miranda.or.at/tabsrmm-articles/39/

I would suggest new Miranda users to also go over the customization guide over at miranda forums: http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?t=7001

how can i install this pack ?

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/38893939/

this are copule DLLs/ICO files, go to "Icons" in Miranda options and one of the buttons there will let you set up the icons
OMG. This **** is impossible. Spent several hours trying to get it to work and nothing.. Well, the main window is kinda alright now but the message windows still look like shait. Anyone know how to fix my problem (see ss)?
you need IEView plugin, what you are trying to do is to set up skin for the window (border), not the content inside of the window (which is IEView plugin)
