No, it can be replaced normally for WLM 2009, just play a little with the style and definition files :) (I'm on mobile now)

Does anyone know which Consolidation window would be the one where you can change display pictures?

depends what display picture, all the definitions are different windows... for example the ones in the chat windows would be in 920...
(btw if you want to release your skin I would advise to use the \Windows\Definitions instead of the \Consolidated Windows because the latter already includes language specific data...)

hmm...another question, i would like to add a logo in the bottom, where the ads where. How exactly do i add a new picture there? I need to add it in schema file and in the definition, right? If so, would that be something like <Element content=rcimg( "msgr", insert_picture_image_here) ContentAlign=bottomleft/>
</Element>   

And that has to be nested in...um...where the bottom window is defined.   Or am i missing something?

that sounds correct :)
if you embed it in <element id=atom(adbannerregiontext) ...
I'm guessing it will show up there...

Hello, its me again :)
Havent had time to work on my skin lately due to college so im back now. So.. first question for now. Can i add new graphics like pictures, icons or similar things into an existing window, and change the position of already defined stuff there.  For instance, lets say i want to move the box where you display your image to the right, or some other place, and on the place it was before add a picture such as a logo or just something that would change the look a bit?   Can it be done or are there any restrictions?   And if it can, can i get an example perhaps?

Thanks again, and ill be back with more questions when im stuck :D
