Phonecontrol screen not working

**DaveB** · 03-28-2006, 04:52 PM

I installed MI the other day. Wow...let me tell you...I thinks its the best front-end available and I've tried most of them!

So I have phoneco licnesed and installed. When I click on the Phone button in MI, phoneco launches but the MI main menu screen does not go to the phoneco skin. I did choose Mobile Impact as the front-end that phoneco should support, when I installed phoneco.

Any ideas of what I need to change to get this working?

Okay, I've made some progress. I changed the phonecontrol windowtoswitchto setting to be mobile impact. Now when I click on PHONE in MI it switches to the phonecontrol screen but this screen is NOT embedded in MI. Is this the way it's meant to work?

I'm using the MI red skin. Phonecontrol has this skin:

which works well with the MI blue skin but not the red skin. Is there a red skin available for phoneco?

I never thought of making a matching Phoco skin to the red skin for Mobile Impact, so here is a red Phoco Skin:

Download Red Phoco Skin

To install: download it and unzip it into the "C:\Program Files\PhoneControl.NET\Backgrounds" folder, and overwrite Mobile Impact.png with the file in the zip you downloaded. Restart Phoco and it should show with the red skin. If not you may have to go through the wizard again. The thumbnail will still show in blue, but the actual skin will be the red one.

Red,

Thank you! I have photoshop. How are you changing the colors on these skins? Do you have PSD files with the colors and images on different layers?

Actually Im using Paint Shop Pro to do all of my graphics and it has a function to change Hue/Saturation/Lightness, and all I do is tweek the Master Hue. I know there is a similar function in Photoshop because Ive seen others do it but Im not that familiar with it.

Red,

You can do the same in photoshop. Its nice if you have access to the PSD files because you can do much more with them. I was just wondering if perhaps you had the PSD files but now I know that you don't!

Thanks again for your help.
