    hey can you make the vista theme applicable to the old aim 6.0 version? the previous version before the 6.5 update.
    because a whole bunch of people are having problems with aim 6.5 freezing, so having the “vista style” would be FABUl0US for the previous version.
    Give me a heads up on what you think.

    Thanks!

    It works with Aim 6.2 and up. But I don’t have time converting it to Aim 6.1 because 6.1 uses a whole different set of file structures to make skins work. All skins here work with 6.2 and up.

    will you be making some more new skins for aim?
    possibly an “aero-effect” theme?

    Haven’t figured out a way to do Aero Effect Yet, although it turns on in Accessibility Mode. I’ll need more research before it can be done.

    Your vistabasic folder in this download does not contain the correct themeBrush.box file and the theme will not function correctly.

    If possible, can you please make a aero theme for aim? Thanks for this skin though. Looks amazing.

    I don’t know how currently, I’ll need some insider help to even make one.
