Seems like a lot of work for an overall "pointless" hack.

dont you have to actually KNOW someone who USES it? I don't.

Most of the people I talk to use Google Talk or use Chat in Gmail – I only have 2 or 3 contacts left on MSN.

Anyway, why would you both 'skinning' it to look like that? It looks horrific!

Hehe this is very old school. Customizetalk.com had this posted back when Google Talk was first released.

No offence to the author but these styles look terrible (:

Ironically, the official Google Talk page at http://talk.google.com has a picture of Google Talk with some kind of special skin (the window bars are spiffier). What's the deal with that?
