CookieRevised's Offline one looks nice; I'm not so sure about the Away colour though... Actually I still think red's the wrong choice.

Or in grey's only: ("away" is lighter then "offline", cause "away" means even more away then offline)

CookieRevised stop messing around with your posts it's confusing, lol o/j...anyway the second one is great it makes sense how the grey is faded for away and less faded for Offline…If there was a vote for CookieRevised’s second colour system you’d have my vote…:D

I like it. And how do you change it from the image to the text on a forum?


EDIT: gotta keep editing my posts.

The different statuses are under the following templates:

postbit_away
postbit_offline
postbit_online

Very self-explanatory :P

You quoted 2 of them... ^o)

Of those 2, I personally prefer the one with the more maroon-ish "Offline."

MSN? They aren't the same as MSN's... "away" here means: you're not online and you're unlikely to come back any time soon... "offline" means: you're at home but you can't be bothered to log on...
