Looks quite nice - abit scratchy but with some effort could be made into a good skin, keep it up

Blue to white gradient, grab the vapor image from wlm 9's msgvsta. Done. Though maybe theres a bit more to the white glow effect. Still its not too hard to remake. Looks like there was a purpose to those files after all.

And yeah good luck in the chat window :P
