RE: [Released] Stuart and Jason's 365 Theme
willz when i learned skinning for 8.5 it was relatively easy, everybody had written loads of tutorials on the subject and your skinning guide was extremely using in navigating the UI Files, but since the release of 2009 nobody has bothered to write a...

RE: [Released] Stuart and Jason's 365 Theme

[split] legality of downloading skins
no its not illegal, it doesn't break the law, it is in breach of Microsoft's End User License Agreement (EULA) which you agree to when you installed messenger but no its not illegal.

RE: [Released]My Live Messenger
blessedguy, i solved this same issue in 365 skin, we had 2 copies of every style file, you would know by what theme was selected whether or not the background was dark or light so each theme refered to either a light or dark version of the appropriat...

RE: [Released]My Live Messenger
hi blessedguy, i was wondering how you have managed to put backgrounds into your skin. in 943 you refer to image 4300, in 923 you use image 626 as the top of your background and 625 as the bottom, in 920 its image 1571 however thats only for the area...

[VACANCY's] 9.0 UI File Coder & Graphics Designer
unfortunately the release of Windows Live Messenger 2009 (9.0) has meant that the UI Files are to complicated for myself and Jason to figure out, also Jason lost all his software in an attempt to repair his laptop and i am not very good at graphics w...

RE: [HELP] Images In Options
Denniss as you can now see from the screenshot below if the box is ticked then it hides the button, if unticked the button will be visible. [IMG]http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j87/stuartb ennett/SkinOptions-2.png[/IMG] finally figured out how to g...

RE: [Release] Ev0 4
it depends on how its read, it says with the rest of the buttons so you can interpret it to mean that the rest of the buttons from the word wheel toolbar move like i did or it can be interpreted to mean it will join the other buttons that exist on to...

RE: [Release] Ev0 4
you said if wordwheel hidden all 3 buttons would move to top toolbar but when wordwheel is hidden only the menu button is moved to top toolbar this must obviously be a bug.

RE: Skinners Unite!
right but presently my skin refers to the 8.5 style files and definition files, thus far 1001 definitions is the only 1 i have replaced with a 9.0 copy which might explain why its not liking the word wheel much right now.

RE: [HELP] Images In Options
i knew how to do option windows and after investigating i saw how to do the above but setting for 4 seperate states (normal, hot, pushed & clicked) is a bit overkill, i just really wanted to be able to do the checked and unchecled without having to w...
