russellc Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 if something is released under GPL, does that mean i can release modifications of it without permission from the original author, but state the original author's name in the readme? :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/299261-miranda-customization-topic/page/32/#findComment-586654848 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAbad28 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 How do I use other peoples themes? Like when I go to mirandas website and look at the themes... I download it and don't know what to do next. I tried that AdiumX skin, but how do I install it?

ninjakarl Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 this is what you guys can look forward to :) (left shows black, with close button not mouseovered; right shows 'white', with close button overed) the style without the titlebars will be included. but will look more or less the same as eachother (just dark or light) 586654641[/snapback] OMGOMGOMG release it! I would use Miranda IM just for that. I love it. Just a thought, how about sticking the display pictures on the left so if there user name is too long then it doesn't get lost (which happens with Gaim I've noticed).

I have like Clist_nicer and ieview but how do I get one working? There are few contact lists (clists) scattered throughout this thread, try and download the one from Karma Police which you can find on the first page of this thread. It's called spotlight. I'm not too sure how to use other people's clists with clist_nicer but it's easy in clist_nicer+ which you can download from here Make sure that you put clist_nicer_plus.dll in the Plugins folder of Miranda. Then go to Options->Plugins and select clist_nicer+ Restart Miranda. Once you've downloaded and unzipped your.clist file, go to Options->List Background+->Import And select your downloaded clist.
