Turns out the button not working was an Trillian issue, not a theme one, I restarted Trillian and it worked fine.

I love the skin very much, and i don't wanna switch to default one. But can you please put a sound on/off button on every chat window like default skin has.

Great work.

Insomnautik In reply to aliquiss [2009-08-21 20:00:02 +0000 UTC]

i'll look into it, but if you didn't already know, you can right click on the chat window, go to options, then go to sounds. from there you can turn the sounds on and off like you normally would.

Skin looks great. But I faced one bug....that when I use the DRAW feature(in chat window) the drawing space is dark and even if I used light color it was not showing anything
See if you can fix it please...

Scream81 In reply to acemanoj [2009-08-17 21:06:18 +0000 UTC]

the black font seems to be not changeable, like links...
It's always black...also in the default skins.
So what we could do is maybe change the background to a lighter one when in draw mode...

obsolete00 In reply to ??? [2009-08-13 04:49:47 +0000 UTC]

this skin is the best ive seen and its reallly sleek, though my only "complaint" is the teal line on the right side of the contact/buddy list. its nothing major but when setting the skin color to black and having a black desktop wallpaper, that teal line just stands out. would it be possible to change it?

SonOfNothing In reply to ??? [2009-08-12 15:34:43 +0000 UTC]

Alright, so it works now, but I really wish that IRC tabs (when I have multiple chats tabbed in one window) lit up upon new messages. That's the major miss that makes me not want to use this skin.

SonOfNothing In reply to ??? [2009-08-12 15:25:48 +0000 UTC]

This skin is beautiful, but broken for me.
Chat windows persistently stay on top of all other windows, and the windows do not show their input box for typing messages.

PhoenixHawke In reply to ??? [2009-08-11 19:54:19 +0000 UTC]

Ok, I love the skin, particularly the contact list. Mild critique - the contact list is very sleek and takes up very little desktop space, however the message windows are somewhat bulkier.

The other thing I've noticed (at least on the theme I chose) is that when you highlight text that you are preparing to send (say, to copy it to the clipboard before sending) there's no visual indicator that the text has been highlighted - the highlight seems to be the same black color as the background. I'm using the Cyan theme.

Shaythong In reply to ??? [2009-08-11 09:13:23 +0000 UTC]

I like it but I have a few problems. 1. When highlighting text with your mouse, the black background blends in too much to see if you highlighted or not. 2. The blue link colors don't fit in nicely, but I'm sure Cerulean studios forgot to allow the change. It's very nice and looks much better than the default themes.

great job! love the unique style!
i wonder if you can convince the Trillian folks to include it as a standard theme!

p.s. one bug i ran into. for the news activity feeds, twitter, facebook etc. it has some display errors on the info card!

but other than that awesome job.

mcdonamw In reply to ??? [2009-08-10 22:01:08 +0000 UTC]

I concur with almost all posts here.. This skin is very sleek and professional looking. I am VERY impressed!

My only desire at this point is to have some transparency options with the skin. I am really a fan of transparency/translucence and that's one reason I like the default skin for Trillian Astra. I see your skin has a small level of transparency. Is there a way to increase it? I'm unaware of a native function of Astra to control it, but I imagine there's something that can be set in the skin config?

Thank you!

Actually I need to clarify something. I know Trillian Astra has a global transparency option, but it affects *everything*.

It seems the default Astra skin is more transparent than the color themes with your skin at any global transparency setting. That's what I'm referring to.

Is there any way to control that without affecting the icons, contact names, etc.

Thanks again for such a wonderful skin!

The only thing you can do is to make the graphics themself more transparent... there is no skin config for that.

As some of you have figured out, on a 64-bit OS, you have to place the files in program files(86).

Also, I had to run winzip as administrator in order to extract to the skins location.

I'm running Windows 7
