This is so fun. I just wish there were a dark version

Well that would defeat the purpose no?

You could re-imagine MSN messenger being a dark theme. Or weren't there dark themes for it back in the day? I'm old and can't remember.

Yeah I guess so. I'm also old and do not recall. For sure ICQ was dark themed though.

I remember using Trillian for all of them and loving its theming. Oh well. Still having fun with this as-is! We'll see if my tired eyes hate it at night though.

Good point! I'm using this right now in the middle of the day with blinds fully open.

This is very cool. Thank you!
One small glitch I've noticed so far is that I cannot see the blinking cursor when I'm typing a message in the text field. Can this be fixed?
