i was wondering how do you get a DP to appear on the login screen of messenger, i have seen the effect on many of the screenshots in the skins database yet none of those skins or any as far as i can see have actually implemented such a feature.

i want to add a option in my options panel to allow users the choice of having the dp on login screen or not but cannot find anything to hide / unhide and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction.

i did post this questing in the how to hide elements thread yesterday however as i was not getting any response i felt i might be more likely to get one if i deleted this post from that thread and start off this new help thread. i hope i dont upset anyone by doing this.

now then ive stumbled across what seems to be the right area to focus on as shown below.

quote:
element[id=atom(idUserTileContainer)]
{
padding:rect(9,8,14,15);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileContainer)][class="Medium"]
{
padding:rect(5,5,9,9);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileContainer)][class="Small"]
{
padding:rect(5,5,7,8);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileBorder)]
{
background:rcbkd(1524);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileBorder)][class="Medium"]
{
background:rcbkd(1525);
}
element[id=atom(idUserTileBorder)][class="Small"]
{
background:rcbkd(1526);
}
<*PlusSkin Conditions(ShowDP = false)*>
element[id=atom(idUserTileVisibility)][visible=false]
{
layoutpos:none;
}
</*PlusSkin*>
<*PlusSkin Conditions(ShowDP = true)*>
element[id=atom(idUserTileVisibility)][visible=true]
{
layoutpos:top;
}
</*PlusSkin*>


now then as per the quoted code usertileborder refers to images 1524, 1525 & 1526 which according to willz skinning guide are the outer edging for the DP box so i naturally assumed that usertilevisibility controiled whether or not the DP was present or not, ive created the checkbox in my options panel and as you can see coded in the plusskin tags but it still has no effect, could someone possibly tell me what i have done wrong? im not getting any skin trace file so syntactically its correct but its not doing anything so somethings is wrong somewhere.

thanks in advance.

Wait what? are you talking about the sign in window?

as in 947???

Because um :P well Display pictures ARE there you just have to make sure your window is bigger vertically than a certain size. The display picture gets hidden automatically once your window is smaller than a certain size.
