Okay, the time has finally come. I am just getting tired of making these damn patches. I am sort of afraid that making this information public will cause AOL to change the way this is done, but I doubt it.

If you would like to learn how to hack the banners, here is how to do it.

Fire up ResEdit and navigate to here in the AIM application:

Contents > Resources > English.lproj > Local Resources.rsrc

You will need to edit two resources to make this work.

PPob 128 Find the word "vali", then delete from the first "begs" before that word to the first "ends" after the ad URL. Then, delete ONLY the word "view" immediately after that.

WIND 128 Adjust the Height to 252.

There you go, that's all there is to it.

Use ResEdit.

I think he meant he doesn't have OS 9 installed, in which case, he can't use ResEdit.

But I don't see any reason why Resourcer wouldn't work. The worst that could happen is you'd have to re-download it
