I am currently using messenger version 5.6, and have created several hundred skins that work with this version, which are the background.bmp files. I tried downloading a newer version some time back and they didnt work with it so I went back to 5.6. I really would like to upgrade to a newer version, so my question is, will the background.bmp skins that show up as a picture behind friends list work with the new versions and how and where would I place them? Thank you for any help you can give.
One of the heartbreaks of Skinning for applications, is that the applications are always in a state of change. Yahoo has been one of the IM’s that liked to change often.
With the new version, there are .bmp files, but they are mostly for the buttons and other type images, and then an .xml file. As far as I know, there are no places for that one image that used to make a yahoo skin in the older versions.
To find how where the new skins information goes, you search here:
C:> Program files> Yahoo> Shared> Graphics.
