Hi old chaps!

I've just started using Miranda, after being inspired by this thread, however, I have a couple of questions...

Firstly, everyone seems to see my text as the default black-arial, is there any way to change this to how I want it to look?

Secondly, using clist_modern, how do I go about hiding the title bar (just as in clist_classic)?

Thanks :D

Hey everyone! I am sure this has been asked a million times, but I cannot find a clear cut answer.

How can I make my Miranda status icons/contacts look like this?

I have the following Miranda version and plug-ins that might be of interest, if it helps:

Miranda 0.6.8

clist_modern 0.4.2.36

tweakui 0.0.0.4

I've heard you can do it with TweakUI, by selecting Translucency and leave contacts opiate at 30% or with clist_nicer+ (I cannot find nicer+). But, when I select those options with TweakUI, it doesn't work.

Thanks for the help! :D

What theme and icons are those?

I think that on the second screenshot, the clist_nicer skin is "modernclear", the dark substyle, and the status icons are by a0x. not sure what the ieview theme is, but I wouldn't mind getting my hands on it either.

Can't help you much with the first screenshot, but again it's something I want :D

Not sure about the first screenshot of the vista looking contact list skin but there are heaps of variations. One is My Vista by russellc

The second screenshot is Modernclear also by russellc with Proxal icons by Angeli-ka/valkyrie.

The ieview theme is GoneDark by russellc. I'm not sure which variation is used in the screenshot but it's been slightly modded there anyway. Should be easy enough for you to replicate.

Btw, they are all clist_modern skins

With the recent "push" from Microsoft, I finally started really using Miranda.

Usually starting grom scratch and making it work like you want it to is very difficult.

I tried doing that many times, spent a whole day messing with it, asked around but later gave up.

It is the Mir4nda Pack that really got me started.

Went with one of the skins that came with the pack and themed the Tabsrmm to match it:

All the plugins are ther but customizing is still difficult as many of the plugins seem to operate together and finding the right place in the options is pretty hard. The options is intimidating. Now trying find how to change what the popup displays when a user comes online.

Humph.

Using Miranda 7 and Tabsrmm 2, does anyone know why the message input area doesn't stay resized? I'll resposition the input area, 'save for all sessions' and it just goes back to a stupid huge size when i close that container.

Edit: Ah - Nevermind. Apparently if it i make the message input as small as possible, it auto expands when the container is closed. I just had to make it slighty above the minimal limit ~
