It is not possible to make a borderless message window due to limitations with WebKit.
Try my software!

Well hit WebKit with a stick and show it who's boss!

Also, I thought you weren't going to be in the forums anymore, bgannin! :P
Love,

He was going to "drop in when [he] has time"

Anyways, what if Safari 2.0 had a better Webkit to work with?

Let's wait until Tiger comes out :D

Well, what about the cocoa parts outside of the webkit parts itself?

Is there any sense at all to the suggestion that the message window could become a Dashboard widget? Sure, it's not 100% practical, but it could be kinda cool. Besides, I bet in a couple months when Tiger drops Dashboard will be so hot, you could even sell Dashboard-widgets that put a mini Dashboard panel with micro-widgets inside of the real Dashboard, and people will buy it.

Remember when we were all so crazy for exposé that we ended up shrinking all of our books and needlessly flipping them around on our shelves? Or the time we hired a bunch of hookers and midgets and made them move around the dirty hotel room by yelling "F-9," "F-10," "F-11," and the like?



Or maybe that was just me. :oops:

Just more complex, like cooler gradiants and shadows,lighthing, like osx buttons, also im sure that there is something to be learned from widgets from that area you know? i dont know much about programing, but if maybe just a more streamlined window could happen that would rock.

ps. the graifcs capabilities are including the contact list and chat window :).

thanx for the warmth and mod answered posts!! never get that at the world of warcraft bords. :/.

srry i just read the comonly wanted stuff! woops.

but to elaborate. Like having a icon or a small grafic next to a contact/group would be cool, like being able to design and put implace custom grafics for group headings and such. :).

GO DeVS!
