[Guest] [Hentaya]: Good thing the shoutbox doesn't have timestamps.
[Guest] [ravensong]: Is WIM going to be updated for the new patch? It gets a LUA error every time people log on bnet or pst me, because "
[Guest] [ravensong]: "surname" is now a nil value.
[Guest] [Dethedrus]: Since WiM is obviously quite dead, is there ANYTHING else out there that even comes close to replicating it's functionality?
[Guest] [Harshmage]: So the "surname" can be removed from the realID detection, in WIM.lua
[Guest] [Harshmage]: but fixing the tutorial popup and other errors is probably not going to happen without a major rework
[Guest] [menace97]: quite dead?
[Guest] [Nytetears]: I am trying out tell track I wish WIM would update I much prefer it but there are too many errors to try and use it now
[Guest] [Erudan]: Wim is being updated on Curse.

WIM Skin Suite 2: CityScape

Pretty cool, SW kind of reminds me of the new prince model. And the background seems to be like a similar motif to blizzard's current in the character window.

I edited the post so you can click the pictures and download them to test them out if you want to.

When doing these up, I gotta keep in mind that the dark backgrounds for the text boxes work better in skins than the light ones (due to some double up shadowing effect on the text which I don't know how to get rid off).

So with that in mind, I try to pick something that reflects the theme but is darker.

/bump for feedback 

[Midnitte]

What do you mean in terms of doubling up for the text?

What do you mean in terms of doubling up for the text?

Meaning, turn your font colour to black in the skin, have light background, shadow still exists, can't turn it off, makes the font thick and unreadable... kind of like a doubling up effect (like you have two black font texts of the same slightly apart from one another).

So, I decided against using light coloured backgrounds and stuck with darker ones with lighter text.

ooo very nice, If I wasnt so set on using tukui I'd probably use these to make a complete UI for each race.

Perhaps try using a different font? The shadow might be part of the font or something.
