When there's too much content in the toast box?`

I have never seen a toast box with scrollbars and doesn't it get cut down with dots (...) to fit things in the toast box??

They are probably just defined in the UI files, so Willz put them in to be accurate.

As to why WLM left them in; probably laziness and re-using files and changing main content

but that suggests there was a time when toasts had scrollbars, ive been using messenger since probably about version 6 and i have never ever seen scrollbars in toasts ever.

Yeah thats right. Look the reason they are in there is because they are referenced. But just because they are referenced does not mean they are actually used at one point.

The messenger team would obviously have a UI tool which creates a template for them when they are making the interface and its more than likely that scrollbars are included in all their templates.

And for the people complaining about registration like I said when the sites going smoothly (which it kind of is) I'll remove the registration requirement on tutorials.

Woa, damn Willz. Just downloaded the 4th part and I'm stunned of the amount of unused and obsolete resources Microsoft left in the program. No wonder the file size of the setup goes so high!

Very, very, very nice work!

phew...that will help a LOT !! But...why doesnt MS just clean up their unused images?!! There is so much junk there... Thanks for the guide, willz!!

hi willz i saw something in part 4 that confused me the text in question is as follows.

This image also has a vista equivalent please add a replace with a source of “msgvsta” as well as your standard replace.

now i have seen this against a few images that ive replaced but dont know how to do this msgvista thing so ive only coded in the normal replace so far if you could elaborate on how the msgvista thing is done then i can add to next version of my skin.

thanks in advance willz

EDIT:

i also noticed that in Evo you change resource 1489 the show menus button so instead of being on the tollbars with colorise and the other buttons it became an FLWMenuBtn how can i do that in my skin with my own images?

Hello, I've found your messenger skins, and it's a verry beautyfull skin!

I've Just a little question.

How are you converted you'r PNG files to MSNRLE ?

Thanks a lot for your answer!
