This is without a doubt the coolest skin I've ever seen. It's practically a program with all the stuff you can change! The contact has signed in/opened a conversation with you toasts look AMAZING. The picture for when a contact doesn't have a display picture is cool and so are the little "pearls" on their display picture in the contact list. The fact I can actually CHANGE the colour of my conversation window now (since I had a dynamic dp which restricted me) is skill in itself (I've been requesting this be put into StuffPlug)
All that said I couldn't find a nice blue to use, so looks like this isn't the skin for me either.
And what's with the status picture changes. All my desktop contacts have weirdo circles instead of a messenger buddy. That's just a bit weird for me...
PS your aliased emoticons look really cool, even if they do look a bit dodgy in parts. (e.g. your
's lip is like full bent up...yeah I notice the little things)
But yeah sweet skin. I don't really see what the point of Patchou having a skinning contest is if you're gonna enter.
