I think you have to extract MP!L resources (can be done from the Messenger extraction wizard). Then find the icon, and read in the documentation how to replace it.

If it's not located as an MP!L resource, you could just disable the buttons (option available in the skinning documentation), and add your own button (by yourself in the definition file) with the same CmdId, so MP!L will recognize it as the same button. To find the CmdId, I would refer to my sticked tutorial in the Skinning section of the forum.

You cannot replace the MP!L resources the same way as you do with Messenger resources, that's why you have to read on that subject in the skinning documentation.

CmdIds are numbers. FormatPanelIcon.png is not a CmdId, it's a picture.
