  • Super thanks! :D was tired of gtalks whity white :) hurray for pidgin and your demo!

  • If you don't want to watch this whole video. I'll explain it in short.

    1) Copy gtkrc from your downloaded skin.

    2) Paste (replace) the gtkrc file in your pidgin directory, most likely similar to this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Pidgin\Gtk\etc\gtk-2.0

    3) Restart Pidgin and SUCCESS!

  • @lilsorms202 hey thanks for the info, I've been trying to use gtk + theme selector in win7 x64 without success, trying to guess where the f*ck was the program saving the configuration file (I thought it was more than just over writing the gtkrc) fortunately i was wrong and i found this answer, thanks again.

  • @lilsorms202

    That worked thanks, linuxfags just talk bullshit what makes no sense when searching help from everywhere

  • Thank you for not putting some annoying music in this. I wouldn't say Pidgin's the best, though. They don't even have a built-in option to group Offline contacts together. How do you overlook that?

    Geez, this guy can't even type properly and even he's noticed how awful the developer's explanation on themes/skinning is. Of course, the issue isn't that there's a lot to read, because there isn't. (Cont.)

  • The issue is that the developers don't tell you HOW to do it, they just go on about why they say theme instead of skin or whatever, and then never get into how to actually change the theme. Which makes anyone with half a brain wonder about these people if they can't even address such a basic nonessential issue that everyone in their right mind should care about.

    And it's not just the creators who can't explain it. I've been Googling all day, but as anyone with a mind knows, Google sucks.

  • Damn I wish people could learn to write like humans on the internet, though. All you need is to have graduated from the third grade. I wouldn't presume to go to China without speaking Chinese. Or at all, because I don't want to get snatched up by one of their governmental Disappearing Vans and dropped down a coal mine shaft with nothing but rats to eat. Again.

    Someone has excessive ellipses syndrome.

    Why use the portable edition? It's still attached to your computer.

  • I have a question. Where the hell are you decompressing this downloaded theme to? From there, and everything after it, you've lost me. 

  • can you please help me???????? i dont understand the searching part. HELP D:

  • I don't understand what you're trying to say.

  • @7georgeb3 Digsby is melware

  • where the hell do we download skins

  • @pspnichol try art(dot)gnome(dot)org/themes/g­tk2/

  • se my other video, thats explain your question.
