Ichat Milk Skin Tweak?

"[REQUEST]" Has anyone yet attempted to take the Status icons from the Ichat Milk skin (the little circle, minus , x icons found next to your contact person)

and replace them with the new Sexier systray icons (chat bubble icons)

I am sure this wouldn't be too tough I just don't have the time to fart around with it.

Let me know if you are interested in doing this Modification

The icons I used are from the original iChat tiff and from there it was a cut a paste operation. :-/

If someone posts a link to the .tiff file referred to, which contains the iChat icons, I'm sure i could do it in a matter of 10 minutes.

It's not too complicated. at all.

You simply cut/copy the buble icons, of the right size, (16x19) , then paste them into the bitmap referrenced above. You'll need to do some background color changing. The lighter colored ones are if you haven't selected that user's name. The darker is if you have clicked on their name. I was going to give the exact color#'s for those colors as well, but mspaint isn't cooperating, simply use the little Color Picker tool thing in whatever drawing program you use.

Anyone with mspaint.exe should be able to do what is needed.

OK, just got done editting them all, then I realized. Those are just the icons in your drop down menus. (Click connected, you'll see). I'd take the time to figure out the correct one, and even mod it, but I get off work in 5 minutes, and I need to go grociery shopping when I get home. So good luck with that guys. If nothing else, maybe it'll lead someone in the right direction
