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?

Whats the easiest way to change the icons in miranda?

I have downloaded the proxal icons but I don't want to use the older version of miranda/dll's.

I think you need this:

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... :)

    • App, useful & Teams shouldn't be used in the same sentence.
    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.
    • That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,  
    • Maybe ? DLSS Swapper (can swap the DLSS/FSR/XeSS versions) as long as the game (typically online/competitive) doesn't checks for file tampering. You can try different version(s) or update if not the current version of the FSR. https://github.com/beeradmoore/dlss-swapper
