For serious diskashens.

Pardon the silly title, but i just couldn't help thinking about Literecy Cat while working on this template. So if you decide to use it, make sure she is amaized at ur grahmar too.

Fonts used:
  • Cambria for names, with Georgia as fallback.
  • Arial for times.
  • Calibiri for the text. Install the font, or otherwise the template will break! The problem is that Calibri is so much smaller than e.g. Arial at the same font size, so if you don't have Calibri, it will be replaced with much larger Arial which looks less nice.


RTL (right-to-left text direction) should work, although i'd be glad to hear reports from people actually using it.

I've tested the template in IE6, but not in IE7. If there are any glitches in IE7, please send me a message and i'll look into them.

Originally inspired by the amazing design of Phy Lu's homepage.

Thanks to Lustmusket3000 for reporting bugs i've missed.

I have just tested it and it looks really great! Very minimalistic, but still sexy ;).

I have only 2 little suggestions for you:

1. Maybe you can add a different background color than white for empty conversations

2. Maybe you can make the color for links different than the normal text color


That's it so far, I'm really lovin' it!

I've found another bug:


PNG-Smileys are not displayed. If Smileys have a different file-type, like GIF or *.ico, it's working...


Hope you can fix that.

This worked fine with an older build from March 2007. Just installed November's build and I can't open a chat box to talk to anyone on MSN. Anyone know how I can fix this?

Right now i have no plans for a TabSRMM skin, i'm not good at making graphics. But i wouldn't mind if somebody did :)

Both things fixed, the issue with the smileys remains though.
