Hey guys,

I thought I'd dabble slightly with the skinning engine, just to personalise a little.  I've tryed a few skins, but I'd like to just make some edits of my own to the standard one.

However, the first thing I've tried to do is change the MToolbar slightly.  Not much, just by dissappearing the email/sms/phone call buttons.  However, I appear to have done something wrong.  All I did to make them vanish to set LayoutPos=None and it worked - but now the Plus buttons are appearing first in the toolbar.  Can anyone tell me why this is, and what I could do do rectify it.

On a slightly deviatory question - can anyone tell me what the "brandedbtn" and "oimbtn" buttons are?  I tryed making the brandedbtn visible but nothing appeared.  This isnt really an important thing, I'm just curious.

Either way, cheers guys.

If you make the other buttons on the toolbar disappear then the Plus Buttons will be moved to appearing first

If you want these to disappear too then you have to add

code:

---

<MessengerPlus>
            <AllowContactListChange>false</AllowContactListChange>
        </MessengerPlus>

---

you can read the skinning documentation and try to make this a booval option.

the branded button is where a company buys into windows live, I think some ISP in America did and offered Onecare under it's own branded name as well as messenger.

but I've yet to see a screenshot of any branded messenger
