Contact list window customization

Post by gslrider »

Hi all, right now I'm using Aluminum Alloy as my list layout. I can see my contacts pics and username/alias. but I can't see my own. Is there a Xtra for this. Basically, I'd like the contact list to view like the PC MSN Messenger contact list window. With your pic and username/alias at the top. And everyone elses below you.

Thanks in advance.

Easy thing to do is add yourself to your contact list (I think).

Nope. That doesn't seem to work. The icon is of the MSN butterfly, not my custom icon. I'm actually surprised I was even able to add myself to my contact list.

So you can see everyone else's icons, but not your own? I just downloaded it, seems to work fine for me. Try talking to yourself or something. I don't know if that'll work, but it works (sometimes) when your other contacts icons don't show up/update, so maybe it'll work for yourself, I dunno.

It must have needed some time to update itself. I can see the custom icon now. Both in the contact list, and the IM window. Thanks for your help da_baum. :D
