Looks quite nice - abit scratchy but with some effort could be made into a good skin, keep it up

All you've managed to do is copy 3 images, and you've not even got that right
Still, good luck with the convo window ;p

Blue to white gradient, grab the vapor image from wlm 9's msgvsta. Done. Though maybe theres a bit more to the white glow effect. Still its not too hard to remake. Looks like there was a purpose to those files after all.
And yeah good luck in the chat window
