O.P. [Preview] 724
I've been working on a new skin for a while now, it's coming along, slowly but surely. Still got a few things to work out, mostly to do with colors that don't fit yet but it should be fine.

It's a dark themed, simplistic skin that, when finished will have some interesting features, mostly borrowed from .typeZERO/davidpolitis such as the Always on top button in conversation windows (I will be extending that to the contact list as well), status icons in convos (I really like this here feature, it's quite useful), and probably more. It'll take a bit of time to get this skin finished, as I don't have that much time on my hands and there's still quite a lot to do, so don't hold your breath :P.

Here is a new screenshot of it, have a look and see how you like it.

Those really don't look distinguishable from the offline mode icons... I hope something there changes.

EDIT: LOLS I'm in the screenshot :D

Yeah, as I said it's got a fair bit of work to go. I'm hoping I can get some better icons that match it more, anyone want to help?

Looks very good, not too many colours used which always helps.

But your taste in skins is silly, and so is that grammar "Best skin if seen so far." oh my! :P

So far he has just made it black/grey gradient and added a flower to top of contact list whilst grey scaling the icons, I like where it could be heading but who knows? :)
