O.P. Messenger Plus! Window Borders
Ok this has been driving me insane for a few hours. Anyway I decided to give skinning Messenger Plus Live itself a go and actually got pretty far for the preferences window.

The only issue I am coming across is being able to change the color of the window border. Basically I just want to make the outer blue part of the border a black color that isn't colorized.

I threw this code in the General interfaces file and it worked for the size of the rounded corner, but the window border color seemed to be ignored. Maybe I did something wrong I don't know but I'm over it now :P

quote:
<WindowTmpl>
   <BackgroundColor>
      <GlobalColor>bg</GlobalColor>
   </BackgroundColor>
      <Corners Shape="Round">
         <RoundSize>28</RoundSize>
      </Corners>
   <Borders Type="Dialog">
      <Color>
         <GlobalColor>bg</GlobalColor>
      </Color>
   </Borders>
</WindowTmpl>

I was hoping maybe some of the scripters who deal with Messenger Plus windows or possibly Patchy can shed some light into how I can do this. Asides from that the skinning of MPL is going pretty well, though I wish the colorization functionality worked a bit better (hint hint)

Heres a preview of what I have working.
