RE: [Released]Skin wich only provides Options
nice skin...

Some quick suggestion in regards to the UI though: Change the way the checkboxes are used for the Messenger Plus! options.

As it is now, almost every option in the option panel is to _hide or change_ something, and thus isn't ticked by default. But in the Messenger Plus! categories it is the other way around; every option here is to _show or keep as default_ something and thus is ticked by default.

It would be less confusing and more consistant with the overall scheme if all the checkbox options (thus incl. those for Messenger Plus!) are to _hide_ something.

In that way, every option works in the same way and you don't need to think like "if I select this checkbox, does that mean it will hide the thing or does that mean it will show the thing as default?". Thus in that way nothing is checked by default and you can see extremely quickly (without looking at the categories) which option is enabled and thus which is hiding something...

I think it is suppose to be by the other plus buttons to be consistent? For example, i always hide my toolbar that's on the top on the window.

if good, but. Also the emotions are up and down after.
but it could put the icon for the plus! with others, indeed I did. and is not see too bad.
so as not to ever leave  to see the icon.

   
but all this depends on Guena.

   
for me the options window is very clear and precise.

I have only one suggestion. the text color of the toasts. only change a part, but depending on the color image of the other texts are not read, use the Ultimate picture and see what I say.

First of all, great skin :D The only problem i found was the chatwindow. There were still open and unused spaces, so i modified the chatwindow a bit :D Here's a screenie of it, the blue 'v' is a send button.
(Might want to implement something like this as a "micro chatwindow" option, would be great!)

Cheers!

Au fait, pourquoi tu proposes pas d'utiliser les arrières plan de la fenêtre de conversation de base de messenger en pleine fenêtre plutôt d'une seule et même image pour tous les contacts ?

Les skins Ev0 4.0.2 et LTD 1.0.1 on déjà cette possibilité.

Cela fait un bon moment qu'il n'y a pas de MAJn j'espère que tout vas bien et bonne continuation. ^^

The first package available contain Nature and Landscape pictures.
