if whenever you finalize the look your template is going for in the mock, just send me the psd and then i will find time to do it...i am thinking of having a template done for this weekend

you can find my contact information at my site (click on the image in my sig)

Looking great!

2 suggestions:

-would it be possible to make the little white "frame" surrounding the black conversation box strand out a bit more? Maybe make it thicker... or whiter... Stefanka's spirit has that around the winamp window and it looks great, just as an example.

-do you guys think it would look better if the dotted white line was dark grey instead (the colour of the large timestamp)?

Also, I vote against the large timestamp, while we're on the topic :) .

Love the concept, good job!

Took into account some people's ideas

1) timestamp removed

2) White lines are now dark grey

3) rounded the bottom of the "file status" box

4) added a much stronger white line around the transparent black boxes

5) created a small "incoming" and "outgoing" symbols in the bottom right of each message box.

6) User status is now displayed.

Thx :D :D, i cant wait to start working on this too, but i got an exam on monday. I'll see if i can do anything after monday b4 my next exam. If i have time i mite even be able to finalize it 2nite, but no promises. I also want to design custom icons for the toolbar on the message window.

Leetl90: ye it was originally a timestamp before i changed it to a status indicator, i'll probably switch back to a timestamp.

Oh don't remove the timestamps, I liked them like that :(, at least make a version with them included :)

ye i was hoping it wasnt gonna be a copy and paste job. Was hopping there was some "stripe" effect option in photoshop or something. Thx tho, ill use ur way.

you create a new document, same dimensions as your desired pattern. then, create your pattern (in this case, a diagonal line), so use the pencil tool to just draw the number of pixels in a diagonal fashion. after you're done this (make sure it has a transparent background), go to Edit -> Define Pattern. Press OK (assign a name if needed).

after this, go to the image where you would like to apply the pattern (correct layer as well). select the paint bucket tool (right click on gradient tool) and for the Fill options (on the toolbar) select pattern. then choose the pattern you created. then just click on the image (to fill it with the pattern)

    • I like mesh chairs like this, but not being able to lock in the back would make it not work for me. Also, I don't like arm rests at all. Can you not install them and the chair still work? Any recommendations on alternative chairs?
    • As before, my notes are in your quoted section. To be clear, you started posting racist, fascist nonsense. And I always challenge lies and the liars that peddle them. Why? Because the truth matters.
    • Deal for those who want 1900 size electronics in their house? with 2026/7 hardware mhm.. not nice
    • Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.
    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
