Nice! I really like the one on the right. I think it'd look nice in a Luna Element 5 version too (hint hint :D ). Keep up the good work.

[agoNITE]

looks nice...works nice also :p

*i'm beta testing :p *

ok miranda is starting to make installing and customizing fb2k look like a piece of cake. really, i am totally lost. there is so little simple, straight forward help for this its almost impossible.

i have clist_modern_mod.dll, ieview.dll, i think i am missing something for png support although i have imgdecoder.dll in the plugins directory.

i just wanna bang my head on a table, screaming is possibly a valid choice. anger, anger and small squirrels that crawl up your legs and bite your ears. exploding badgers. is it too much to ask?

a simple you need this this and this, you get them there there and there, you put them there, there and there. you select this, that and that. 1 2 3.

seriously, i've been at this for about 4-5 hours, it's 5am and i am going to kill the milkman when he drives by on his milk float. i'm going to launch badgers on wires, that swing down and cut his head unless someone lays this out in easy steps.

i think the interweb is conspiring to make poorly documentated, terribly explained opensource projects so people end up screaming and throwing their monitors at passing crows. Its all a plot by hardware companies to make people break their stuff and buy new things to replace it.

ok, so if you haven't guessed. tether. end. going mad. s.o.s.

help will be greatfully recieved. now, i'm gonna go bag me a milkman.

hey dude, cheers you helped me when i was just about going mad. I know miranda is an ongoing project, but the amount of documentation and it's organization is dreadful. I've learnt not to attempt to do this when tired though!

the thing that wasn't obvious to me is that i needed to download the latest dev build of miranda. Generally people are gonna steer away from dev builds in favour of the stables. am I wrong about this? It seems that it only worked when I got miranda 0403a50w.

sorry for my psychosis, the badgers have been reined in. i think if i have to go through that again my feet will drop off :(

[Jamushroom Veteran]

But is it all working now?

[Master Xen]

I could make a personal version without the _ button and make the X button minimize to tray :)

I'd love this!

[thelost]

But is it all working now?

yup it's working now. i'm very greatful, otherwise i would have gone mad, i'm quite sure. I think I might do a little tutorial sometime as a lot of what needs to be done isn't very obvious. like i said before, the miranda documentation makes foobar look like a treasure trove.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

There's a 2 customization thread's here on neowin for Miranda-IM, you might wanna take a look at those ;)

[illicit]

That would be pretty sweet.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

I'll release that version tomorrow :)

[Master Xen]

Is it tomorrow yet? :p

[Jamushroom Veteran]

lol, yeah sorry about that.

My second hard drive was dying and my graphicscard fan was broken.

I'll make the changes today and maybe I'll upload the file today :p

I want to make some new Miranda skins for other visual styles as well.

I made one for Reluna Em3lent, 2 version but I havent released it yet.

I also made a gfxOasis one.

If you guys want those, just say it, and I'll see what I can do with the permissions :p

[mrvc]

Yeah I want them!

Any screenshots for gfxOasis?

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Not yet cause I made lots of versions of that one.

So I dont really know which one of the 10 (or something like that) I want to release.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Update 4:

- Added extra version for Black and Blue version with the close button set to minimized.

I have removed the original minimize button in those versions.

I hope you guys like it this way ;)

Be sure to read the readme file in the archive file so that you know what to do with the included files :)

[Razorwing]

hmmmm...nothing is working.. not even the Miranda site.. so what exactly do I need to get this working? I read the readme says something about a skin selector.. any help would be appreicated.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Do you have these plugins installed?

[Stylez Ray.]

Nice skin, but one problem here: The group image doesn't work, it's just white.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

You'll need to set your Row border at 3 pixels.

You can find that option here: Contact List > Row Items

Let me know if that fixed your problem :)

[cheazles]

Capricorn - When the mouse is hot tracking over the contact list in the Blackversion, the contacts are blue. Is this supposed to be orange? Just wondering because the contactover.png is orange while contactdown.png is blue from what I remember of the folder

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Yeah I know :p

I saw that as well, only the names are wrong but the colors as they are now is supossed to be like that.

I'll reupload the file with the right names :p

I've reuploaded the file with the right names and the right assignment. :)
