KQIX Forum Skin, Emoticon Trouble [RESOLVED]

[oldbushie]

I made a skin that uses all the emoticons from the KQIX forums and more, but I can't access all the emoticons when typing them! Why is this? I have 83 emoticons in total...

Also, I don't want any of the amsn emoticons to override my own, as some of them have the same characteristics. How do I fix this?

My skin is here: [Removed]

Thanks for any help!

Edit: Turns out I had to replace < with &lt; and > with &gt; inside my emoticon tags. It was screwing up the rest of the xml.

Actually, how do I just keep amsn from wanting to impose its smileys on mine? I don't want any amsn smileys in my set as it's crowded enough as-is.

read the howto create skin from the wiki, if you read it, you would understand how it works... you need to remove those entries from the settings.xml or simply override the files with your own...

[oldbushie]

The wiki doesn't tell me much of anything, not even what the different settings mean...

Unless I'm looking at the wrong wiki.

And, I only have my files included, and only shortcuts for my emoticons. None of the amsn stuff is in my stuff or even mentioned.

Do any of the skins keep all of the standard amsn emoticons from being usable? I don't want to even replace silly things like the umbrella emoticon, I want it gone entirely.

i see.. are you talking locally or remotely ? the images and smileys you see on amsn when using your skin will only be local, the other user will see them depending on his skin (or default if using the official client), but if you're talking about inside amsn itself it's like that, then indeed, there is a bug, we'll try to fix that for the next release. I'll tell you when it's done so you can try it out on the cvs version.

Yes, I do mean local emoticons. As long as there's an option made that blocks the amsn default local emoticons entirely in a custom skin then I'm happy.

Thanks for the help!
