Working with a skin... by Joe on 07-09-2006 at 06:58 PM

I need to know how to remove thie picture from this skin's contact window.

Or I need it removed for me. If someone knows how and it's not too much trouble, I'd appreciate it.

Which picture? The girl, the thing at the bottom or the hexagonal shapes?

If you mean the girl, it is located in your messenger directory as lvback.gif or lvback.png, just delete the file :).

All I did was add a msgres.dll I think, and the skin is what I got. Along with the girl

if it's in msgres.dll you'll need to use resource hacker to get rid of it.
give me a few minutes and i'll have a walkthrough for ya.

edit:

note:
this is modifying msn, which violates the eula, though you've already replaced msgres.dll, so this is a moot point

OKAY HERE'S HOW TO REALLY DO IT
1. reshacker http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/
2. msgres.dll
3. ctrl+f 20058
4. delete those two lines
5. compile
6. save and exit

worked like a charm... as you most likely could have guessed. Thanks


Can you tell me how to remove the RAhXePhON from the bottom bar?


RE: Working with a skin... by ~INVASION~ on 07-10-2006 at 04:43 AM

same as before but change to 1472 instead of 20058

please don't use these methods to steal the skin and republish it as your own. not that i can stop you, it's just not very nice you know.


RE: Working with a skin... by ~INVASION~ on 07-10-2006 at 11:14 PM

nobody is republishing it as their own, were just taking out a couple things we don't like, nothing wrong with it

i'm not saying you are, i'm just saying that this is the method one would use to do so, and that they (imo) shouldn't
