Print Page - Skins and Icons

Quote from: lecoicqbrasil on 17. February 2008, 14:49:53

Tank you brother!

I am making a skin based on the "Simple Cold."

It will be called ICQ Classic. (Old Skin)
And I needed to change the icons to give an appearance "ICQ 2002" in the skin

First off, it is bad to use other Skins as a basis, they might not be as new as the sample provided here. Secondly, you might violate applicable copyrights. ;)

You can download an recently updated Sample here (http://www.animesharp.com/icq/skinning-howto).
The Status Icon Styles and image referenced have been commented out. Be aware, that users might be confused if those icons change.

Code:

<!-- ICQ Status Icon Styles -->
<!-- Do not use! Confuses users and might cause unexpected behavior -->
<!-- old status style (not sure if completely unused)
<bitmap id="image.Status.OffLine" 		

src="images/Common/IcqIcons/IcqStateIcons/Statuses/offline.png"/>
<bitmap id="image.Status.Connecting"

The above Section should be found in the Skin's Boxely BOX file. Remove the Comment tags, and edit the icons, to make them work.

I am correcting the skins and posting for brazilian users.

Many do not understand any of the new features in ICQ...

Your blog looks nice, but I can't read it. :(
I hope you asked the skin authors for permissions to publish their works, though. You know, you can always link to elsewhere. :)

PS: We do not like you to block the advertisements. ;)
