Too late to edit, but here's an image of what it's like right now:

miranda.jpg

I basically need to get rid of the blue text, and the fact that my messages come under 'Unknown Contact'

Options - Events - Messaging log ; uncheck show times.

Also, what font is that :\/

First of all, thanks for this topic!! It was a great help! :D

But it didn't help me in two things:

:angry: The fu**ing avatars!!!!

I use the lastest versions of :

miranda ( 0.4.3 Alpha B#41 )

Ieview ( 1.0.4.0 ),

Scriver_unicode ( 2.2.2.10 ),

msn protocol ( 0.4.1.3 ),

png2dib (0.1.3.0 )

The options in Network ? MSN ? enable avatars, is selected, and when i'm talking with someone i can see my avatar, and it's right. But in my chat window in miranda it's shown a default one

:angry:y: The transparency with clist_nicer!!!!

It works fine as we can see in the image above but when i change the wallpaper:angry:y::angry:y: ( and i use a little app to do this whit a frequency), i use:

-clist_nicer ( 0.3.4.10 )

-tweakUi ( 0.0.0.4 )

I hope someone can help me cuz i DIDN'T find the answer anywhere, not even google!

You have to restart miranda to update the background, so it wont work with your wallpaper switcher.

I seem to have the same problem with avatars.

I use MSN through the Jabber protocol in miranda right now (the MSN protocol keeps logging off and such), but when i used ithe MSN protocol my avatar didnt show up.

Other people was able to see it with the latest nightly (#41) installed, but i still got the 'no avatar' avatar

I don't think it's a good idea, cuz i have to restart miranda every time the wallpaper changes.. ( every 30 min ).

But as far as i know is the only solution :(

It's my screenshot, so I should ansewr these questions.

Ummm... Ok, first of all is that clist nicer or modern clist (I'm assuming nicer?)? And what theme is being used? How do you get the icons at the top?

It's clist_modern_mod (not layered! there are 2 different modifications of modern: mod & layered)

I'm using Toptoolbar to show the icons at the top of the clist.

The theme I'm using is Vista by KoL (he had to remove it because MS wrote him a "loveletter").

That's it... hopefully

Oh, is Vista by KoL the theme for the contact list or Windows? Because I was asking about the contact list..

Also.. Is there any easy way to replace the original Miranda icons with a new icon set?

The contact list is by russelc, you can find it here, Vista style, transparency and 100 % opacity

http://miranda-im.org/download/details.php...iewfile&id=2439

For the icons, after you download them and extract them to a folder, You can go to

Miranda > Option > icons and click on load icon set or import icon to choose the individual icon for each protocol.

Edit to use the vista style contact list you need clist_modern layerd

Since you answered those questions...

Could you please tell me if you are willing to share that IEView template you are using in your screenshot?

I really really like it!

When i open miranda, that happens. Even though the titlebar and background is on, everytime i go open miranda it appears like that. I have to go to options, uncheck show title bar/recheck then apply. Then it goes back to what it should be

But when miranda closes then it goes back to the first. Agh, help

@ PlayUpPompey: Looks like my Miranda looked like when I had Tweak UI and Cleartype enabled on a dark background. Maybe substituting TweakUI for something else would work?

@ BaronLSN: I don't think you want to apply another .clist, rather, go to options and manually change the settings for the fonts and icons.
