I'm not sure if this has been changed in the Trillian Pro skin yet, but I replaced the default icon for metacontacts (quite surprised it was still in there) with this:

Thought you might be interested.. Was a quick job but I totally disliked the default metacontacts icon in a classix skin :)

What do I replace it with it the CTACT file, all I see is a bunch of little icons.

here https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=...ST&f=34&t=75267 you will have to put them in your shell32.dll tho.

maybe that link can be put in a readme?

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me out here...

I have downloaded the toolbar zip files containing the bmps.

How do I implemement them? The toolbar would look really nice with this theme.

Gigatexel has the same toolbar in his my computer window screenshot.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Many thanks

Pfft.

No spamming. Spamming is characterized by the initiation of threads or posts that contribute nothing to a forum, be it off topic or on topic. Examples include: empty bodies, bodies with few words that have no relation to the current thread or discussion and those posts that state they are spam, either to annoy, advertise or increase a member's post count. Resurrecting old forum posts is also not appreciated unless it serves a worthy cause to the forum. This determination is made by the forum Moderator or Administrator and is not up for discussion.

Hi all,

Just wanna let everyone know that I whipped up a quick mod of the wonderful altdesk theme based on the Winamp2 metrix skin to fit in with Classix 10K 2.

If anyone is interested in it, please lemme know, and I'll start the whole 'gimme permission' bal rollin'.

The screen shot attached (sorry, just couldnt be arsed to resize and crop it) shows what the altdesk skin looks like, it's the five panel app sitting under my shaded winamp in the top right corner. As you can plainly see, it's a blatant rip off of the metrix altdesk skin, if you've ever used it.

Anyhoo, lemme know if you want it or not.

Oops, the preview post option seems to forget to attach my image... ah well, here it is again.

Whoops, another thing, for those of you that might not be aware, AltDesk is the SUPER SNAZZY destkop switching app that Microsoft never seemed to get right.

Coming off of a Linux environment, I used to use Enlightenment for my desktop, anyway, AltDesk is the only app that I know of that can accurately emulate enlightenments virtual desktop implementation.

Check it out at AltDesk

    • Your other comment in another article says otherwise, namely "Microsoft veteran wants to replace every single line of C/C++ code with Rust and AI".
    • Sued and... exonerated. Oh, they learned a lesson alright. They learned that anyone who uses the word "antiturst" in conjunction with "Microsoft" is an idiot, even if that person is Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson. That judge ruined the image of the US justice system. Microsoft Edge has a 5.14% market share. Also, Windows is no longer the #1 OS. None of this constitutes a monopoly. Google Chrome, however, has 70.25% share. Also, Google's Android is the #1 OS. Now that's closer to a monopoly.
