im working on a skin but the colours i have chose make it hard to read the text in the images on the logon screen, i have discovered the images in question are 701 and 703 now without going into the actual files and editing messenger master copys how do i make the text in these images display in the colour i want.

i vaguely remember something like this is it that i take the 701 and 703 value out put in 59xxx values for themn and then define these new values someone as belonging to modified version ive the original files saved in the script folder?

please let me know if i am close.

any help anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.

701 and 703 are images, you can edit them in any graphics editor eg Adobe Photoshop and re-colour them using filters and adjustment settings like HUE,SAT,LUM etc

Also might I suggest you re-read through your posts in future, little of what your post says makes sense.

I'm sure you mean skin folder (hence saying re-read your posts) Look at how we've made our skins, and read the documentation and tutorials, it'll give you some idea.

ok in the documentation patchou gives an example called neko koneko, in that project he gets you to change the background reference from 20061 to 59000 you then have to declare that reference in the skininfo file and thats where you link it to a file, the style file in that example "Neko-Koneko.txt" had to be put in the skin folder along with the image you wished to use, now ive given that a go but im coming unstuck on the code for the skininfo file.

EDIT:

ok i figured out how to change the images now, my next problem is some ox the black coloured text is on a dark background where i do go to alter the colour of the text for say forgot password link or for the labels above the username and password fields?

EDIT:

i think i have found where to put my modifications but what i need is to know what syntax to use for text colour entries in the style sheet files

foreground:(r,g,b)

thanks, ok now my logon screen is sorted i discovered another problem while my background works for logon screen contact list and convo windows when it comes up in the toasts some of the text at the top cant be seen because its dark, where are the stylesheets for the toasts located?
