You will need the clist modern plugin for Miranda IM to use the skin and the mydetails plugin for avatar, status message, status and nickname like in my screenshot.
the work is done taking care of details...
Version 2.0: getting minimalistic lol hope you like it
The font in the screenshot is Frutiger Linotype Bold
Really very nice skin. I would even say the best of the Miranda skins I have selected.
Unfortunately, there is one little detail. The blue background of the group is too busy. This works OK if you have only one group. But when you have several closed groups, they are all docked in a pile of blue bars on the top of the contact list. As a result, there is a huge block of blue just below the the blue title bar. So simulate this, here is a test, create five groups and close them all.
I think if you remove the color background of the group, for either opened or closed group. Then this skin would be very nice. To make it even more perfect, replace the text in the bottom bar (menu, on-off, add, options) by icons.
You know that very well because this is what you did for Tango Human skin [link]
Thanks for your quick feedback (also from the Tango Human skin). Please take all the time you need. These skin requests are low priority. Your life and school are more important.
In my opinion, the icons (in the bottom) you used for Tango Human are very nice. You can re-use them for XPMC.
Oh I forgot, Can you also please default the indentation of the list item inside the opened group by 8 pixels? (currently 0).
Currently, I set this option by: Option, Contact List, List tab, and at the bottom: set "indent groups by": change 0 to 8 pixels. It would be more logical that the skin set a default value.
Hope you are still working on the update. Since Miranda v0.70.34, there is a row of 6 icons on the top. See picture here: [link]
When you hover the mouse on this icons on the top, the bubble says "Main Menu", "Status Menu", "Show Offline Contact", "Jabber Bookmark", "Find User", "Option".
Also, the picture in the link above also shows the backgrounds which looks blocky when several groups are closed (we discussed this in the post above).
Hope you can fix all of these and thanks in advance.
Devious Technology is very proud to announce one of deviantART’s most highly anticipated projects – Portfolio: The Awesome Version!! Portfolio is the simplest and most professional tool on the Internet for formal presentation and review of artwork, and the best part is: it's available to everyone for FREE!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

Now i'm workin on the v2 of this skin and many changes are to come.
I don't use grouped contact and so i did not saw the bug that you suggested.i will do some test and change something for a better view.
Last, but not the least, is very difficult to find matching icons for this skin and satisfy user's preferences, especially for this skin.
Howewer i will try to make the skin better also following your tips.
Thanks a lot.

Good luck for your exams.
