Unable to Download An error occurred: Only the submitter, mods and admins are allowed to download Xtras before they are approved. Could you make it so that the notification to update StackBox only occurs once the Xtra has been accepted by Adium? # by kashidom on 02/10/12 at 00:38:12There's no failsafe way to do this, unfortunately ... :
I'll investigate further, to see if I can find a good solution # by kashidom on 02/10/12 at 02:48:49I've added an experimental way to verify it.
Unfortunately, StackBox is still under verification, so you'll have to wait for the update... but, after this one, that problem should be gone. # by kashidom on 06/28/12 at 16:10:00A bug in the adiumxtras website prevents this verification to behave properly, you will still be warned about the update, but you can only download an older version until it is approved. The admins are three updates behind, so far... this is unfortunate, but sadly out of my hands.
# by berliozz on 08/22/12 at 10:50:33That awesome chat style, but can you decrease font size for user name?
# by kashidom on 08/23/12 at 15:06:24It should appear as in the screenshots I attached. If it doesn't, it's most likely a bug. I'm trying to fix bugs in Mountain Lion, so you may experience new ones in previous versions of OS X... since Mountain Lion is the only version I have available, right now, I'm afraid I can't verify what you mean.
# by berliozz on 08/24/12 at 08:40:11You find a screenshots below:
First screen - fluffy style http://www.adiumxtras.com/index.php?a...tra_id=7960 https://dl.dropbox.com/u/15688571/adi...um_chat.jpg Second - Stackbox https://dl.dropbox.com/u/15688571/adiu..._chat_2.jpg IMHO font size in second case so huge and presense status icon in this row unnecessary. That only my opinion and that your creation. With regards, Victor. # by kashidom on 08/24/12 at 15:03:53Thank you for the screenshots, that helps a lot. I see no display issues, the style looks as designed. Please note that this style is mainly intended to be used on a larger screen resolution. The status icons look a bit strange, yes, but they're mainly there to show in what status the user posted their message, for those who care, just like the time stamps — some people wanted them permanently present. Shall I add an option in the preference panel for the status icons?

If you hover the mouse over a box with multiple messages, all of those stamps are visible.

When I find a good one, I'll add an ability to keep the stamps.
