What do you mean by opacity? If you’re wondering how to make it transparent, it can’t be done. If you mean how do you change the image itself, you need a theme with an IM window background picture.
Yeah, I was wondering how to make it transparent. I DL’ed an AIM expression that has an image in the IM windows background, but it’s not transparent.
It makes the text very hard to read, but I like the theme and hoped to figure out a way to make it transparent enough to read the text and still leave the pic.Sorry, but there’s no way I know to make it transparent. However, it might be possible, because there are programs like DeadAIM that can make the buddy list transparent.
Chewy, if you have Photoshop, you can adjust the opacity of an image very easily. For an image that would appear behind text like a buddy list, I usually use about 40% opacity.
Even if you don’t have Photoshop, most better image editors allow you to adjust opacity.
You need to put it as part of a theme. If you don’t know how to make your own theme, read this
I’m already using the theme i want. What I wanted to do was edit the picture in the background IM window for an already exsisting theme im using
ok, does anyone know where i can find the location to change the image in my buddylist background?
I tried looking around with reshack, but dont know enough to mess around with files at all. So I’d rather ask someone who knows where I can find it.
thanks
in reshack, its AimRes.dll, Bitmap 273… you’ll have to delete it first (right click it, choose delete, ignore the error message) and then create a new Bitmap resource with your picture, and then name it BITMAP 273, language 1033
if that doesnt make sense, i can clarify
