Creating a message style
Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2006 3:42 am
Hey I was just fooling around trying to make an Adium message style that goes well with my Mac OS X theme.
I just managed to mod the Plastic theme by changing the colors and thats about all I figured out how to do ;/
Heres a pic I just have some questions of things I wanna change if someone can help me or if there is a tutorial or something.

Ok first I wanted to know how to change the font / color of the time, the msn display name and (MSN).
Second I wanted to make the right part of the message box square like the left part so they are both square.
Third how can I change the color of the words status and can I change the actual words to ' Status: ' with capitals and also can I change the ' went away ' and ' came back ' to whatever I like? and also how to change the color of those.
And last how can I add a white border under the brown message box like the one in the top toolbar.
Sorry for spamming the forums but I wanna learn and then I wont have to ask :twisted:
