How to skin Trillian?

from Stardock Forums
Hey, I just downloaded Trillian, the instant messenger because I was told it can be skinned. I'm just wondering how to do it...

you want to build skins or install them??.. also WB natively skins most chat programs with the current WB skin. so it looks like the rest of the desktop ;)

No to building skins. I'm like computer illiterate, haha. But I want it to look like the rest of my desktop. I'm using a mac skin. Also, do you know if MSN Messenger can be skinned to look like a mac as well?

the best way to see what WB will make it look like is to open the msn messinger and try it. i know trill has a few skins that you unzip when downloading and copy the files to the themes directory within the trillian folders. their support pages should have better documentation on how to apply skin..

I do not recomend skinning Trillian. I am unhappy to say that the latest update to the software has made it very unfriendly with a handful of programs and WindowBlinds is one of them. It is possible to have it skinned but it then acts oddly and very annoying. I already asked some of the techs there on this matter and have yet to hear back.

Some have told me they have no troubles but more than 2 out of 3 have complained of this. Just an FYI

Okay, thanks. I think I'll probably just delete it then, since I only installed it to skin it to look like iChat. Thanks for the heads up.
