Wow, what message style are you using?
And will I have to install this again when an updated version of adium comes out?

# by caletz on 02/17/08 at 20:58:40

No, Adium updates doesnt touch, this :), and its Modern Bubbleling! with black background with 85% opacity

# by Cortez on 02/17/08 at 17:59:30

Also, what does that iTunes icon do on your msg window?

# by caletz on 02/17/08 at 20:59:32

it paste, the song am playing, or info about the song your are listening in itunes!

# by Spookster on 02/17/08 at 18:47:12

i suppose this doesn't work on Tiger? (if i remember correctly from Hirogen's posts over at Macthemes forums)
The message style is modern bubbling, right?

# by caletz on 02/17/08 at 20:59:03

wow this looks great....you wouldn't by chance happen to know if theres an entire Mac OSX theme that looks like this would you?

# by icemonkey004 on 02/18/08 at 05:37:35

also...the HUD theme is nice but is it possible to get a version that has the buddy icon on the left instead of the status icon? (i tryed messing with the style but I didn't know how the code was set up)

# by butteforce on 02/20/08 at 14:22:15

I had the same question, so I started messing with it. The CSS is a trainwreck, so I've basically just built a new style that's vaguely similar. Perhaps I'll submit it at some juncture.

# by icemonkey004 on 02/20/08 at 14:28:43

i found someone that did it on macthemes2 forum a few days ago. sorry i dont have a link but its there if you go searching

# by gottacoppafeel on 02/18/08 at 20:05:02

AMAZING! this allows me to keep the look i had but use the image and status selector in the contact list...thanks so much for sharing!

# by magiteo on 02/19/08 at 13:18:30

BEAUTIFUL!!!! The best!!! Tank you so much!! :-*

# by butteforce on 02/20/08 at 14:24:51

This is incredibly buggy when using tabs at all. Attempting to change between tabs with hotkeys, or close tabs, will break the entire window. You won't be able to read the content, and the contact list will be stuck in whatever unviewed content style your contact list is set to.

# by Botunda on 02/20/08 at 15:21:18

How is the world do you change the color of the window to be black and transparent?

# by gottacoppafeel on 02/21/08 at 05:24:56

ya any work on a fix for tabs? this preventing me from switching fully to this

# by gottacoppafeel on 02/21/08 at 05:27:55

oh and the scroll bars changed to HUD would be awesome too :)

# by metro6audio on 02/24/08 at 13:34:50

I've noticed a couple of problems with this xtra, specifically that it does not handle window events correctly... If I get multiple IM's from different people, it does not realize that I have "seen" the IM when I focus on their window. Also, it seems to break the +w shortcut for close window. It works the first time, but I have to focus on another application before it will work a second time, and so on. Any chances of a fix for these? (Seen with Adium 1.2.2 and 1.2.3b1)
Love the look though!! (wish I could use it daily)

Im having the same problems as well. The tab hotkeys are broken 70% of the time, and the event's sometimes are not recognized. Also this may be a seperate issue but adium is also acting very slow, and sometimes I cannot open a window to chat. Also when changing my msn name, it dosnt completely erase the previous name it only highlights and then once I delete it it stays there until i hit enter again with my new user name. Other than that its a very nice looking modification and I hope that you will be able to make it a bit more stable in the near future. thanks

everything was fine with this at first, but now i'm not able to send messages, no matter what i try. the tabs didn't work with it unless i reset it every time, but that's not a big deal. the sending of messages is!

# by kodora1316 on 02/26/08 at 06:03:42

I only noticed a problem when using adium 1.2.3, if that's any help. i really love this theme, and i'd like to use it :(

# by miseryantics on 02/27/08 at 19:48:06

Im having trouble with this. Ive installed it correctly (to the best of my knowledge as i've never really fiddled with the app. files before) and the contact list has changed and looks perfect, but the problem is that if i try to start a chat with anyone the message window is not even opening. Ive disabled tabs etc. as you have said... any ideas anyone ? This theme looks amazing, but is useless if i can't actually chat to people with it :(

# by miseryantics on 02/27/08 at 19:52:01

I am also using Adium 1.2.3 ... just in case this affects anything.

# by Cortez on 03/02/08 at 02:07:29

I was using this on the previous version of Adium, but when the new verison downloaded it stopped working.
So I just downloaded this update on the new version of Adium and now it doesn't show my user icon on the contact list, just gray...

# by kodora1316 on 03/02/08 at 06:11:45

awesome! thank you so much for fixing it. i love this theme!! :)

# by gottacoppafeel on 03/02/08 at 20:12:31

ya my user pic selector isn't showing up anymore...

# by miseryantics on 03/04/08 at 17:39:34

Thank you for the fix!! Works great now :D and looks fantastic by the way :D

# by MacChester on 03/08/08 at 01:48:18

Fantastic Theme, but there are no user pics in the message windown when i use the message style HUD. there is only the ICQ flower instead of the user pics.
"show user Pic" is not available with HUD in the message preferences.

With other message styles, the user pic works in message window.

Any idea?

# by ert3 on 04/08/08 at 22:53:59

Any plans for 1.2.4 development.

I love the style but when I added this to 1.2.4 and I can't initiate chats.

also I can't find version 1.2.3 anywhere so there is no hope of downgrading.

# by kodora1316 on 04/13/08 at 00:08:00

everything still works great with 1.2.4. this is still awesome :)

# by adam.89 on 04/23/08 at 18:24:20

Awesome theme man!

However, when highlighting a contact from the contact list, i cannot see that i have highlighted it, although i have....

Using 1.2.4 running 10.5.2

Cheers
Adam

Gracias

# by jonizzzle on 07/13/08 at 01:48:29

how do i remove this and reset it?

# by delight1 on 08/22/08 at 18:19:56

this would seem to be a newer/better version, and it just uses SIMBL, so it is easier to use.
