== Sounds ==
By default Miranda doesn't come with any sounds, however it's very easy to set them up. Just follow these steps:
# Download a sound pack from the {{AddonLink|cat|14|desc=Addons page}}. {{
  TNT|Note|You can also make them by yourself or use <tt>*.wav</tt> files from Windows sound scheme on your PC.}}
# Extract/copy it into <tt>Sounds</tt> folder in your Miranda installation. You can create one if it does not exist.
# Navigate to the {{Menu|Options|Sounds}} page.
# Place a tick in the sound you would like to hear, highlight the event and click the {{Button|Change}} button to assign a sound.
# In opened dialog chose a path to your <tt>*.wav</tt> file and open it. {{
  TNT|Note|If you want to use other sound formats like <tt>*.mp3</tt> or <tt>*.ogg</tt>, then you have to install {{Plugin|BASS interface}} plugin.}}{{TNT|Tip| Use the {{Button|Preview}} button to hear the selected sound.}}
# Apply changes.

== Icons ==
To change the look and feel of the user interface you can try to replace the icons. But to do that you need.. icons.

To find some of them you can browse the "Icons" category on the {{AddonLink}} Addons page].
