I've finished version 1.0 of my new skin, SevenTwoFour (or 724, however you want to call it :P)!

It's Got:

* Always On Top buttons for Chat Window and Contact List
* Status Changer icons in Chat Window
* Two substyles, Watermarked and Smooth

It's in the options panel.

Unfortunately, I didn't have enough space in the screenshot to put in shots of both styles without it looking ugly and cluttered. Basically the Watermarked style is what you see in the screenshot, whilst the Smooth style just has a blue gradient instead of the asterisk for most windows and "i" for the toasts.

suggestion: put the status change icons under the dp, like in your other skins. :)

Other than that, very nice :)

Oh dear... colorization doesn't seem right, does it? :P Serves me right for using the proper colorization feature in Stuffplug :(

RE: [Released] SevenTwoFour by Basilis on 09-27-2008 at 07:23 AM

I tried it and it looks nice. :) I cannot find the on top buttons though, even after I enable the option.

Anyone got a better name for the Watermarked substyle? It doesn't sound very good at the moment :P

They should be up the top, in the minmaxclose bar.

Just wanted to say that a version 2 is coming out soon (well, probably not very soon as I've got friends over at my place for the week and in the week after that I have to do some assignments, but I should be able to find time) which will include colorizable links and properly colorized images, so watch out for that.

I found the Always on Top buttons and it is a nice feature. :)

I would suggest the watermarked theme was called "Flowery"

RE: [Released] SevenTwoFour by stuartbennett on 09-27-2008 at 04:38 PM

or how abouted called it "Testured"

Personally I think watermarked is a pretty decent name for it.....it explains the difference, because there is no other name for the change except that it is watermarked....a light design in the background as opposed to a foreground design

Stick with watermarked (Y)

Alright then. I was going to call them Blue Velvet and Smooth Velvet, but meh :P
RE: [Released] SevenTwoFour by Ryddyck on 09-28-2008 at 03:16 PM

blacky and simple, for me, is the best!

RE: [Released] SevenTwoFour by BüYüCü on 09-28-2008 at 10:36 PM
