I'll be the first to say for the most part in my previous posts, that this isn't anything new, or exciting when it comes to skins, considering it's just a rip off of a Microsoft styling, but I will say, this is a nice fit for Miranda. I give total props to the author for a nice job using the minimal design to outfit such a nice app.

Cheers

Nice looking skin, except I tried installing it and it's way too much of a hassle to get everything. Well not really hassle, I did everything and it still looks like crap. I can't get the avatars still to work, even though I downloaded the plugins and enabled them.

Just a rip of a microsoft styling? Wtf are you smokin?

First of all, great job on the skin. (Y) Second of all, is there a way to disable the staus bar permanately? I've already disabled it in options but everytime I restart Miranda it comes back.

Sorry about the bumpage. :D

As far as I know, that's not a bug with the skin, but the Modern Contact List.

wow how do u install this skin? im sick of people just givin me a link to forums so i can go through 100 post to find directions to work this, i need straightforward directions.

i just kind of googled it and found my answer.

for example, i will use this skin: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/48767233/

I download Modern COntact List or whatever it's called from: http://addons.miranda-im.org/details.php?a...ile&id=2103 along with the image decoder on that same page (although i have no clue what it does and i dont think it even showed up under my plugins)

Then download the skin, and place in Miranda Directory, preferably.

Right click on the sys tray miranda icon or just go to options > Customize > Skin > Browse and find the .msf in the miranda directory/skin folder you placed it. Apply.. and everything should be dandy.

Icons.. just go to Icons > Import Icons > select the icon pack/file > and for me i just checked all 3 boxes so the icons would replace them > and I've got what I wanted.

Although my setup doesn't look exactly like the skin pic T__T

And a side note, how do i get rid of the "colorful" icons to the right of the contact names?

    • Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience by Aditya Tiwari At WWDC 2026, Apple announced new parental control features for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 to keep kids' device usage in check and keep them safe online. As a parent, you'll get access to a simpler setup experience, Ask to Browse, Time Allowances, and a redesigned Screen Time. You'll be able to pick exactly which apps your child can access on their device, choosing from just a few essential apps, a curated set, or the apps you feel are appropriate. There will be an option to gradually add more apps. Ask to Browse is a new feature that requires kids to request permission before visiting a new website in Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. You can also turn on a setting that requires your kid to ask for approval before connecting with an unknown contact via Messages, FaceTime, or the Phone app. You can manage your child's screen time more effectively with Time Allowances that work across categories, including Games, Entertainment, and Social Media. You can set time limits based on your kid's age and get suggestions informed by expert research. Speaking of expert guidance, Apple added that it's working with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to adapt its Family Media Plan to create a guide parents can refer to when using Apple products. Moreover, the company has also set up a new dedicated website, where you can find tools, resources, and answers to common questions around parental controls and child safety. Apple also allows parents to set daily schedules to manage screen time, configuring access to different apps at different times of the day and across the week. Overall, the Screen Time section has been revamped and provides a bird's-eye view of your kid's average device usage and most-used apps. "For example, to help protect important family moments, parents can quickly limit access during meals, outdoor play, and other times that deserve full attention. If kids need a little extra time to finish something in an app, parents can also easily extend access," Apple said. Apart from these, Communication Safety has been updated to block gore or violent content when detected in shared images or videos. The feature already blurs nudity in Messages and FaceTime calls, and is enabled by default for users under 18.
    • They already threw the Ultra 1st gen under the bus? It really feels like someone screwed up, and that advanced AI features will only be available on the list above but someone screwed up and said that Watch OS 27 in general will only be available for those models. I think they will pull it back. I did see someone also put a snap shot of their series 9 watch being offered the watch os 27 beta. As the backlash online is already in full swing.
    • Right, Google... because that's who this is going to. Google, the company who's entire business model is geared around ad revenue and your personal data.
    • That is the natural course for regulations. First to protect the consumer. Then to protect the business/industry from upstart competition. There are countless examples across history.
    • I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
