I want to make a Skin

[Ferempi]

Hi!! I'm here because I want to make a skin for aMSN. Can I? If yes, where can I get documentation?

[kakaroto]

did you even try looking for documentation ?
amsn.sf.net/wiki -> artists designer section (at the bottom)

Please note that the guide on the wiki is OUT OF DATE. It is a guide for making skins for 0.94. It does have some general ideas about skin-making in though.

Your best bet is to make a copy of the default skin (located in

Code:

your_amsn_directory/skins/

and change pixmaps and change settings (in the

Code:

settings.xml

of your skin). This way you can see what does what. I am working on a complete list of settings keys and pixmaps and what they do, but I'm busy with exams so right now it isn't getting done...maybe at the end of the month, sorry!
