I know a lot of people won't play at AP because they hate the look of the software... I got bored and started hacking at it thanks to a thread I found on that OTHER poker forum... And I came up with this nice simple design.
I'll be happy to give the mod to anyone that wants to use it. Just PM me.

I don't think it's a terrible looking room. It's kind of annoying, but the fish factor makes up for it. Nice Mod

It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

I like the ftr logo in the center of the table, reminds me of xianti's brick and mortar table.

I should note that the base table design was taken from another mod... all I really did was drop in the FTR Logo and put a dropshadow on the table.

wow that's pretty cool. If I were to decide I wanted a mod with a different table background, would that be possible for you to do?

yeah, they have some odd blind structures. 5/10 is 3/5 blinds, which I kind of don't like becuase I always feel like I have the implied odds to start playing stuff 45o if there are enough limpers. well, on second thought, i guess it just feels like i'm throwing money away, but if I have the pot odds, maybe not. I dunno.

Nah, I'm not taking requests, but you can add your own.
In the Absoulte Poker Folder there is a data folder. In there are a lot of files, but these four are teh key ones
bg7.dat
bg9.dat
bg7_one.dat
bg9_one.dat
Take tese files, change the extension to jpg, and drop them in an image editor. Mod it however you like ( I just used the same image 4 times).
rename them back to the .dat extension, and put them back in AP.
Easy enough.

About two weeks ago, AP instituted a new blind structure for SNGs. Most of the levels make sense, but then, smack dab in the middle of the SNG, at level 4 there's this goofy one.
Much like was said, I almost always feel like I have to limp in on the small blind here, if the BB isn't very aggro.
With 125 iin the pot, and only 25 to call, I'm almost always getting 5-1 (Or better if there are any other limpoers). It's goofy as hell.

I hate how small the action buttons are. Have you made them bigger? I can 6 table party because the buttons are huge and pop right up, Absolute I have to squint to make sure I'm not miss clicking.

Awesome work. If you ever get really bored again please consider changing the look of Interpoker. It makes me dizzy for some reason and probably causes
more severe problems for epileptics.
