iChat themes for Miranda's IEView

I'm about at wit's end here. I've spent literally weeks trying to find a decent iChat theme for IEView. I then set about trying to mod an old iChat theme using resources from Adium themes, but due to the absolutely ****ed-up construction of this particular iChat theme, it's impossible to reverse-engineer it to fit the Adium themes in.

Meanwhile, there are several IEView releases being privately shared inside the community which are above and beyond the quality of publicly-available releases. I've tried to find these themes, both through Google and through requests on other forums. Obviously, nothing came up.

So, I'm turning to Aqua-Soft. If anyone has a halfway decent iChat theme, or if they're knowledgeable enough to mess around with some templates in order to make them more modular in terms of slapping Adium theme images in, please post away. I'm begging you. Let's break the tyranny of private releases.

Anyone wanna help this old-timer out? ;)

Also, did you look at older themes on the boards here?

I saw that thread before posting this one. There are two IEView themes included: one is the theme I linked in my original post, and the other is an old A-S forum release that honestly doesn't look very good.

Also, did you look at older themes on the boards here?

I assure you I've gone over the search engine with a fine-tooth comb. The best IEView themes available are private releases. There's a great Ruler theme, for example, but those who have the theme refuse to share it. I even posted a request at HollywoodGUI, but was pretty much ignored.

Too bad, I couldn't help, I'm really sorry.

But I hope that you will find what you're searching for. :)

Btw: I asked some guys if they can help me out. Hopefully, I will get some positive answers.

Asked for help in finding decent themes, you mean?

#479379

Yes, I asked for some themes, but got no answers so far...

#479431

Thanks for looking in to it. Here's hoping you can find something.

#479437

And let's hope that other members here can help, too. ;)

#479441

I'm sufficiently beaten into the ground over my inability to find decent themes that I doubt anyone can or will contribute anything. I can hope, but...

#479443

Have you also looked at this one?

In my eyes, the skin looks pretty cool and has a lot of variations.

#479488

I did, but it's not the style I want. It has word bubbles, yes, but that's about all. I also considered SmoothOperator, but in the end I'm really looking for something like Ruler or Modern Bubbling.

There's a Ruler port on DevArt, but unfortunately it uses the same baffling code as the really old iChat theme I'm currently using, which means I can't just take the resources from the Adium versions of Ruler or Modern Bubbling and plug them in.

I would help but the themes I got are strictly NFR. I would have my head cut off if I gave them away :( I need my head...

#479523

I'm totally in the same boat as the thread Op.

I would really appreciate some help here to.

If you found any good ones I'd really appreciate it.
