hey,

i need an empty messenger plus preferences window, without those 4 upper tabs (just 1, without text) and no tabs at the left.. can someone help me?

maybe patchou, he owns the whole stuff?

i need it for a plugin site (a site about a plugin)..

thanks!

extract the resource xmls from MsgPlusLive.dll

how?

edit: found it.. now permission from patchou..
edit2: it is hard to use the graphics layered in photoshop (colors, positions, right image on right spot), someone who is experienced? skinners??

the red crosses show what has to be removed..

btw, MsgPlusLiveRes.dll

That is the best I could. If you could post it again without those X, it would have been easier.

you have it too just go to "Plus!" and then "Preferences" (maybe localized into your language..

I know that. But do you want the picture with no tabs at all or you want it with one text tab and the other three?

one text tab.. but i'll remove & change the text.. that's not a real problem..
the other tabs are the problem

Change the localization (remove the texts in your language file) and take the screenshot you need, no need for photoshopping.

The sub-preferences panel image taken from the resources can then be superimposed over the inner panel to get rid of the options,  buttons, texts and other stuff on the inner panel.

-

Also remember that you can not only skin Messenger, but also skin Messenger Plus! itself. So you could make a small temporary "skin" (thus with an empty inner-panel) out of the official layout.

-

Or maybe even easier, make your own window with a script using the same images and controls. The exact build-up of images and controls can again be copied from the XML scheme resources, which you can easly get with Plus!'s resource extractor in the skinning section of the Preferences.

hey cookie,

thanks!

but 1 problem:
i'm not as experienced as you..

== edit ==
i'm trying and it's working a bit.. just leave me trying and we'll see
