Oops, I ment Jase's design ;) By they way looking forward to this project hopefully it can reach beta ;)

I was aware of this fact and think that once full skinning is implimented later, jase's idea would be a welcome addition to the skins.

  I'm willing to provide mirrors for your project if you would like. Please PM me and we can work things out.

I would suggest contacting ZogoChieftan (aka FaceofDeath) about this because he is the one organizing the main coding and uploading.

ok the Final Design has been chosen and can be viewed at the nova forums like always:

http://zogosworld.sourceforge.net/nova/php...wtopic.php?t=12

There will be an easy to use skin editor integrated soon for people to make there own themes meanwhile if anyone wants to have a go (don't be to elaborate and keep to the design of the program shown) then be our guest.

Just like to say that the beta of Nova that is so close to release is going to rock :p A quick feature run down

Full chat

File sending (via P2P not using MSN servers! = Speed! But is compatible with MSN7 and MSN6 client users)

File lists - create a list full of files that your contact can view and instantly download a file from you

Display pictures in both the contact list and the chat window

Full Font customisation including Colour Bold Italic and any choice of Font you have installed!

Full skinning - currently 4 bundled skins but very easy to add your own

User selectable transparency (0% to 100% selection)

Skin previews

Emoticons (has not been implemented yet but will be fully functional at the day of the beta release)

Status - Away, Busy, On The Phone, etc (has not been implemented yet but will be fully functional at the day of the beta release)

And it is stable and under 1MB compressed right now. It may come just over 1MB with some other features coming into play before the beta release we may release 2 versions, a full release and a Lite release, The lite version will include all the features of the full version but will only have one bundled skin which will be the Default Nova skin.

More features to come! - Please leave any features you want and we will try our best to get them done.

I would BUT I'm an official Nexus beta tester and I'm liking how this project is going as well. I believe in fair compitition. Like how I run IE AND Firefox on my computer. Or how I run Winamp, Media Player Classic and WMP10. It depends on what I want to do with it.

But yet again, I'm impressed on how you guys are working on this. congrats.

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear

      By Zeromus2003 · Posted

      I am actually looking forward to this..... I think Dark Ages was way more fun than the tedious expansions for Doom 2 (nu-doom).

    • Windows 11 in 2026: Are you fully on board, or still holding back?

      By +Eternal Tempest · Posted

      Mixed thoughts. I do think MS realized it need's to re-focus on it's core while trying to get people to ultimate pay for AI. My windows machines is my gaming tower. That being said a windows machine I used as a server was just recently converted to no GUI Linux server (and it runs so much better for it's purpse), and general purpose laptop (non-gaming) that could run Windows 11 is using Linux. My work device is a MacBook Pro, and I have a raspberry PI acting as my DNS server, using linux. I honestly have more non-windows devices then devices. I don't consider myself typical user however.  
    • Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected by Taras Buria It is Monday, June 8, 2026, which means today is the day Apple kicks off its annual Worldwide Developer Conference, WWDC 2026. As usual, today's keynote will be full of consumer and developer-focused announcements, including new versions of Apple's operating systems, developer tools, and more. Apple streams its developer conferences, allowing everyone to tune in and watch the announcements live. Today is no exception, so here is how you can watch it. Apple WWDC 2026 will be available to watch on Apple's official website here. Also, you can stream it on YouTube and the Apple TV app on your Apple device. The stream kicks off at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT / 6 PM GMT+1. Apple's annual developer conference usually focuses on new software experiences, so do not expect major hardware announcements. What is expected is the "27" series of Apple's operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and macOS. Apple is unlikely to introduce major UI changes, but you can expect subtle tweaks to the Liquid Glass design language, particularly on Mac. One of the biggest changes Apple plans to announce today is a reworked, AI-powered Siri. The assistant will be available as a standalone app with a chatbot-like experience and Google's AI models under the hood. If you want to learn more about what is expected today at WWDC 2026, check out our dedicated article here. However, if you prefer a spoiler-free stream, tune in at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT on Apple's official website, its YouTube channel, or the Apple TV app.
    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      For we consumer readers, it would be helpful if you clearly stated in the headline if the article is about consumer or enterprise. Then readers will know if the article applies to them or not. 2 cents.
