Skins are basically all saved preferences from a user represented by a (Hex-)string of 32 letters (a..f) and ciphers.
Adding Skins
These are the steps needed to create a skin for Mibbit.
For the Widget
- Go to http://mibbit.com/chat/ (for your special widget skin)
- Register as, e.g., "skinMyName" (remember your pw!)
- Open the "Prefs" page
- Optionally load an external skin through the "Load A Skin" button near the "Save and Close" button.
- Modify colors and other settings
- Copy the id (2nd line, which follows "id=") and click [Save and close]
- Use the id (from the "Prefs" page) for your own skin in the widget's uri "&settings=" or in the Widget-Creator
example: http://embed.mibbit.com/?settings=c76462e5055bace06e32d325963b39f2&... ("grayish style").
Make sure that if you publish it, not to have any private info in it (like a password in an alias)!
For the full Client
- Go to https://www.mibbit.com/chat/ (for daily use)
- Register or login (if you have not done so already)
- Open the "Prefs" page
- Optionally load an external skin through the "Load A Skin" button near the "Save and Close" button.
- Modify colors and other settings to your liking.
- Click the "Save and Close" button.
Note: some settings (like "Auto away ...") require a reload to take effect, others (like ...width) need a "/clear".
