Well if you are satisfied with what you have now then fine, but if not you can reshack the "msgres.dll". I'll post brief instructions.
First, close WLM.
Open Resource Hacker (
http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/)
Open msgres.dll in the messenger directory (usually "C:\Program Files\MSN Messnger\")
In resource section 4005, resource 920, language 1033, find around line 329:
code:
element[id=atom(inputareacont)][class="DefaultWallpaper"]
{
background:rcclr(1415);
}
and replace
code:
background:rcclr(1415);
with
code:
background:argb(255,255,255,255);
Next, in resource section 4005, resource 920, language 1033 (the same resource):
Find around line 1181:
code:
convhistory[class="DefaultWallpaper"]
{
background:rcclr(1415);
}
and replace
code:
background:rcclr(1415);
with, yes, you guessed it:
code:
background:argb(255,255,255,255);
Press compile script then save.
Noone was trying to treat you like a total idiot... Noone knew you wrote the Window Blinds skin you were using. So please, don't react that way, as you came accross as a little aggressive.
