iChat bubbles in Miranda!

I was wondering if someone could point out what am I doing wrong here.. I tried to recolor Pe8er's original images and here's the result: messed-up-miranda

Does anyone know how to fix it? :confused:

And also, how can I change timestamp color, if it's possible?

Thank you :)

Thank you :)

you need to modify the CSS style sheet too and use the colour code on the background tags at the top of it.

Thank you very much, JammyJim! Fixed it: fixed miranda :D

Edited to say thank you to Pe8er for making the style :)

All code redone. Now bubbles resize horizontally, adjusting to amount of text in them. I added styles for status changes, urls and files + some other fixes.

excellent work :)

I seriously can't believe that we acutally have chat bubbles! I had given up on this a while ago when I saw there wasn't any development. I'm going to install miranda right now, great job everybody!!! Adium ports would be sweet! :)

#258631

Now i wonder if anyoen will release bubble skins.....

*cough...tiger...cough*

#258633

are there any decent brushed skins for miranda? something like the trillian skin?

#258638

I don't know what I'm not doing right. I followed all of the steps that people posted, but when I load Miranda I get an error that says tabsrmm cannot load resource DLL, and that no icons will be shown. What is going wrong? I want bubbles... :(

#258647

mmmh same problem with me :(

#258648

@both of you--Try finding a new tabsrmm. Make sure you have the absolute latest version--there was a link posted about a page back.

#258650

I was confused about that too. You have to copy tabsrmms_icons.dll, or whatever it is, from either the iconsxp or icons folder (iconsxp, I'd imagine, if you have windows XP), copy that file into your plugins folder.

I'd also like to say that I'm having difficulty getting the avatars to work... tried putting name.jpg/name.png in the miranda/avatars and miranda/css/avatars, no luck either way.

And I get a "The instruction at "0x003c1398" referenced memory at "0x003c1398". The memory could not be "read". error when I quit Miranda, and when I start it again, I have to click apply again for the "Activate support for external log" deal in order to get the bubbles to work again. Anyone have a -clue- what's going on? There are too many plugins/settings for me to know exactly what is causing this, so I'm very much confused. I have the latest version of everything, and have followed the instructions from the first page of the thread.

Look, It's simple:

Install tabsrmm, and if you already have clist_nicer, install IEview. (You have to install plugins by putting the DLL in the "plugins" folder of Miranda, and for IEview, just unzip it into Miranda's folder.

next, go to Message Sessions---IEView plugin section. There, check "use external CSS...." and find the pm2k5.css.

After that, go on the templates tab and check "use template based html builder, and browse and find pm2k5.html

Make sure under the templates tab, "Show time" is checked, to get the time in the corner of the bubble.

I think that's it, and you're set to go.

@Pe7er or Pe8er 9er :P : excellent work dude... I really love it, maybe I won't be buying a Mac anymore lol

I have a question though, in your screenshot, I notice that you don't have all the buttons in the conversation windows, I can't find a way to hide 'em, could you gimme a clue?

#258661

Do you want to remove some buttons or all?

To remove all, right click a tab and go to "container options" and select hide toolbar.

Not too certain about the removing some.

Yeah, those steps are pretty straightforward, except that installing tabsrmm isn't as simple as just saying "install tabsrmm". The instructions needed are in the various readme files in the zip, but after following them, I get the error I posted about when I quit Miranda.

Edit: Not sure what I did, but I don't get that error anymore.

Still wondering about avatars, though.

#258674

Same here :(

#258697

that maybe because ieview is still in alpha stages...

tabsrmm is not that hard 9.9.5 is good. just note there are 2 sets of icons that come with it one for xp one is 256 color. this is the only resource tabsrmm loads you can change this in the option too.
