Bug Description

Postler currently can use an adium message style, but it should have a sexy one of it's own :D So here's my sexy Postler message style

That is looking nice. Clearly there's a cuple of details to get right, so let's consider on-going tweaks as part of this bug.

The theme has no avatars. If you want to try them put this at the bottom of main.css:

.avatar { float:left;width:64px;height:64px;padding:8px;display:none; }
.avatar[src^=file] { display:block; }

And inside Incoming/Content.html:

<img src="%userIconPath%" class="avatar">

How about different styling for "your" messages, do we want that? Should be straight-forward but the above theme doesn't support it.

Changed in postler:
assignee: nobody → Christian Dywan (kalikiana)
status: New → In Progress
importance: Undecided → High

Okay, posting an updated style after Christian and I talked about a few things and synced up the classes available in Postler.

How about making those buttons respond like normal buttons?

a.button:hover {
    background: #eee;
}
a.button:focus {
    outline: 2px solid #08c;
}

Attachments don't render properly, they are not using a darker background and sometimes the text is overlapping.
I find the hover state could be a tad more visible.

The problems with attachments seem to have happened after grouping was added. I'm not sure what the issue is but I'll try to solve it on my end.

No problem

Okay, this should fix the overlapping attachments as well as spacing issues with buttons, make the hover state more apparent, make the pressed state "deeper", and some other random crap.

enjoy :D
