Size of avatars in the contacts list...

[dbercot]

Hi,

I'm looking for the parameter to specify the size of the avatar in the contacts list...
I think it is in the settings.xml file, but I can't find it :-(

For example, I like the WinMSN7 skin, but the size of the avatars in the contacts list is too small.
If I put the futursoft skin, the size is ok. So, I've tried to find the difference in the two settings.xml files, but nothing was ok !

Can you help me ?

Thank you very much.

David.

Hi,

In the skin I've choosen, there are no bonline.png, boffline.png, baway.png and bbusy.png.
So, I've put the ones from another skin, but nothing changed :-(
I've put them in the /pixmaps directory. Is it the good directory ?
Do I have other things to do ?

Thank you very much.

OK. I found ;-)

I've resized away.png, busy.png, blocked.png, idle.png, mobile.png, offline.png and online.png from 17x17 to 22x22. And the size of the avatards are now OK !!!

Thank you very much...

Juste a last question : did I forget a picture ?

Thank you again.

OK. None of them is present... So, I think I'm ok.

Thank you very much.

searching the forum before posting, you would have found the answer. I'm guessing inactive + phone are both using the same image as the one for away.

Hi,

I've searched on the forum (but maybe, with the wrong terms ;-)) but find nothing on : "size avatar contact list" !!!

Sorry.

I also want to resize the avatar, but I don't know how to do those thing you're saying to..
My skin is named Murrina-Candy and i think the avatars on the contact list are too big! I want them smaller...
Plus, how can i change the sounds with this skin?
Thanks anyway!

[billiob]

In the skin folder where Murrina-Candy is installed, you should have a sound directory, change the sounds there. If not, create a directory called "sounds" and put the following files you want to be played in there :
- alarm.wav
- newemail.wav
- nudge.wav
- offline.wav
- online.wav
- type.wav

The files you have to resize are in the "pixmaps" folder. To know how to resize a picture, just google for it ("resize pictures" for example). There are websites that does it for you.
