How would I change the background in the contacts list from the booring grey to like a picture I have, in Msn 7? Would I have to edit the resources in reshack?

put the picture into the msn messenger folder, and rename it to lvback.gif

Im not sure if that works in Msn 7

Then try it

nope diden't work

ok that worked, but now when I scrool my contact list it scrools preaty slow. Would that be becasue the .bmp file is like 1.3 mb?

code:

rcbmp(BMP_ID, STRETCHING, TRANSPARENT_COLOR, WIDTH, HEIGHT, SIZE_FLAG, MIRROR)

TRANSPARENT_COLOR: #RRGGBB
STRETCHING: 1 = normal, 3, = tile, 6 = stretch, 7 = 32 bit bitmap

SIZE_FLAG: 1 = use bitmap dimensions, 0 = use explicit dimensions(the ones you specified)

MIRROR: 0 = normal, 1 mirror

this is so you can decode it down and make it easy to understand.. i jsut cant figure out how to make the image appear..
i think its a problem with the transpearency, but im no genious with that #RRGGBB stuff.
