It looks like Longhorn. The archive includes a "glass" or "aero" style (longhorn_glass.ivt, shown above as well) which looks nice as well as a regular black longhorn style. There is more than one background included (as shown above). To change the background, read the readme :).

The font, Segoe UI, is used for the Longhorn template. So you'll need it installed. You can get it from here.

Any bugs/suggestions/whatever post them here. If you have questions, consult the readme first, then reply here.

And me == :alien: + :ninja: + :shifty:

Do you want anything else for the next release people?

Things for me to do:

+ Shrink the size of the header (I think it's too big)/No-avatar variation.

+ Create a better read me.

+ File-transffer status (currently it looks the same as the away status)

Edited:

Two ideas had been scrapped off due to several reasons.

This is awesome, thanks a lot! :D

two questions though, is it possible to get rid of the icons, and how do you get it to say the messenger you are using eg MSN or AIM below your user name. mine just says (%proto%) :huh:

I think a slightly smaller version is a great idea too.

Spex is right, upgrade your IEView, and spex where teh hot chic in your sig :(, and Russel, i think Hidea wanted to say he didnt realise how big it was in the mockup, because he couldnt actually test its functionallity :p

Haha, you're the second persion who's asked :laugh:

I'm sure there'll be a new hot chick next month :shifty:

Anyway, maybe for the thinner version, you could take the protocol out and make the bar thinner? :unsure:
