Buddy List Colors in AIM 5.5.3572
For those of you who have been waiting for a way to change the colors in your buddy list, wait no more. After Googling "buddyui.ocm", I came across this site, http://hack.modzine.net, browsed through their "AIM Mod" forum, and i came across a thread which talks about the colors for 5.5.3553 Beta. After reading through some of the other forum posts, I learned that these hex offset values are the same in 5.5.3572.
*disclaimer* - I have not tried this modification out for myself yet, as time has not been on my side lately, but I can try it, I will. Perform this modification at the risk of having to reinstall AIM. What to do: 1) First, obtain a Hex editor. I found this free one called XVI32 at http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delph...vi32/xvi32.htm 2) Shut down AIM. You will be able to work with the files in the AIM direcrtory if AIM is still using them. 3) BACK UP "AimRes.dll"!!!! This is [u]very[/b] important.... if you mess up, you may render AIM useless and will have to reinstall AIM. 4)Open "AimRes.dll" in your hex editor and navigate to these offset addresses and edit the colors to those of your preference. Quote:
If you don't know the Hex values for the colors that you want, go here: http://www.jessett.com/web_sites/html/hex_colours.shtml Make sure that you leave out the "#" symbol when you are editing. Let me know how this goes for you all, and I will also keep you posted if it works for me.

You could do that, but AIMutation doesn't work with 5.5.3572.... This is a temporary (albeit rather complicated) solution until AIMutation is compatible with the final build of AIM. Like many, I am anxiously awaiting the next release of AIMutation, but fortunately, i can be patient, and this works for me for now.

In answer to your question, yes, people can see your expressions (if they have that option enabled in their preferences). If you really want people to see your expression, make sure your friends know you have one and tell them to enable it...
We understand you are new, but please post AIM expressions questions in a new thread. Even though it is quasi-related to the colors in the buddy list, it is not of the same nature, and really doesn't belong in this post. Don't forget, however, that you can also search the rest of the forum for AIM expression answers, and hopefully for any other questions that you may have |
