didn't read the whole thing about this, so if I'm saying nothing new, do
ignore me...

So I just checked the skin, and I think it looks quite good. What is a bit
annoying though is the large contrast between the strongly visible tops of
the groups, and the very thin dotted line around it. I think the dotted line
is good the way it is, but the top would probably look better thinner, or
lighter.

    Yes! is why i've asked to tile that image, not to use the buddies...
but some other pixmap, and as you say, a smaller image of course. Is what i
was thinking. Because is in vain to use one BG image not tiled when someone
maximize the amsn window. Just what i think :)

Cheers.

3 - don't worry, you'll often get multiple times the same critic, you must accept 
it, it doesn't mean "damn it,
we told you to do this and you didn't!" it only means "yes, I agree that this should 
be done", so you know it's
not "only me" who don't like the smileys or whatever...
nothing forces you to reply to the same critic twice, just let them be sent so 
you know how many people think
the same thing, but answer just once.
4 - not sure about tiles, maybe as an option (if it's easy to do it with tk, 
otherwise no reason to do it...)
but it would depend on the skin because the msn logo or the emerald logo would 
not be good tiles, but a
wave/mosaic pattern would look good and in smaller size than a big image to 
compensate...

 Hi Phil...


1- Is planned.
2- Yes you are, and will be changed. I am about to compose those sounds.
3- I said this before in one email repliying to KKRT, the smiles are NOT
mine ("Reaadddd pleaseee the ML!!" once someone told me to do that :P)...
and is planned to design a new hole set... maybe Lee could you help me with
this? :)
4- Yes... i know... just i think NewCL should be more customizable withs
spaces or so... because is difficult to center things.... About this... it
is possible to tile the BG of CL? (i mean... back.png). This will be better
when users maximize their window (and many users does) to show the image
tiled.

Thanks.

Cheers.

 Hi,
I haven't much time...
First, as some already said, I think that coloring nicknames according to
the
status should be back as it is clearer to see the state of a contact (no
need
to read)...
Second, I think sounds should be changed because I think they come from
M$N
(correct me if I am wrong..)
Third, I think smileys are strange too... So.... ;)
Four, it seems there is a little bug with the first contact of each group
where DP and smiley are over the group head background...
Apart that, I think this skin is really good ;)

 I accept critics, but i prefer suggestions for the new default... as i
say the last email... this will be NOT as emerald2.0 is....

Now people... please make a list of what you think it should be improved
to fit the New Default one.

 Sorry, but I don't like the new skin at all
it's too bold, "winXP like"
I have win in the classical 98 theme, and emerald really don't fit
IMHO the default skin shoul be as simple as possible,
and leave fancy things to the extra skins

2 - the border around my DP is just stealing space for the DP itself

3 - also for me the border+background color around the chat window is
too big and weird

5 - I liked the different nick colors for personal status, they were
much more visible than just the icon

6 - the "invisibe" winicon is identical to the "online" one. I tried
to edit it to red (like it was in old times) or gray (like WLM), but I
couldn't find a free icon editor supporting transparency

7 - the "close tab" button doesn't look like a "close tab" button but
like a popup list button, this could be confusing

sorry for the avalanche of critics, but I REALLY don't like this

 Hola.

1- Of course, i am planning a nice one for Emerald2.0 too.. i feel

  that

  Emerald does not fit even for the skin.
2- yeah... i just didnt managed to put another one till wait to
implement
same as NewCL there.
3- I dont have that border you say :S. Maybe could you show me with a
pic?
4- Yeah KKRT, because those smile are not mine, but from OpenWengo
Project
(that are GNU/GPL). So.. with time i hope i could make a new set.

2007/2/13, Youness Alaoui <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

 back agian.. tried emerald 2 and I think :
1 - thebackground should change :p
2 - the background color of the top section of the CL is not nice,

  it

  looks like a tk frame :s

             3 - the border+background color around the chat window is too big

  and

  weird, why is it like that ?

             4 - didn't like the smileys too much :s but I hated them with

 stylistic
then got used to them...I wonder if we

             should keep them or change them or adapt them to look nicer ? btw

  'red

  rose' looks like a yellow weird flower :p

             not really red and not really rose :p

that's it for now!

 You know what Gus?
you could put the whole emerald pixmaps and replace the default

   skin

  with it (before that copy the default skin

             as stylistic in the amsn-extras so we can keep the "old

   default"..

  before becoming the default skin it was named

             "Stylistic" iirc) So.. you make emerald 2 as the new default,

 this way
we can all test it and see what needs to

             be changed.. kind of like the new CL, before people notice it and

 report
bugs/comments on it, it needs to be

             directly accessible when updating...  otherwise, I sense noone

 will try
your skin :s

 Hi everyone,

  Since we gonna use Emerald2.0 SVG sources for this "New Look"

  i must

ask:

  which are the images or part of the skin that should be

  changed/improved to

              fit with a New Default skin?. I will need this to start

  designing and
see if

              i could have it done for 0.97
 release.
Samba 3.0.24
Thanks.

Cheer.
