Skype plus with MSN feature
Hi everyone, Since MSN merge with Skype, a lot of options are not available using IM (instant messages). 1) Custom emoticons (Smileys) 2) Custom nickname 3) The nice friendly UI that WLM has (not the blue/white classy Skype UI that I really hate) 4) ...

RE: (Possible) solution for the "Display names" issue (?)
[quote=Arcticwolfx]If you change your Windows Live Profile name, this would allow you to set a custom nickname as well. It's a little less convenient and actually changes your "real name" in your profile, but it is an option. One way to do this: ...

RE: Change screenname?
Hello Terra, Windows Live Messenger 2011 always uses the name you set in your Windows Live Profile - there is thus no direct way to set a custom nickname. The workaround is to change your Windows Live Profile name. You can enter a new combination of ...

RE: Plus! 5 is out!
Are you referring to "contact renaming" (which is a Messenger feature and still available in WLM2011) or nicknames here? The nicknames do actually still exist in WLM2011 but you just can't see them. Plus!5 allows you to display them again, with s...

RE: Plus! 5 is out!
It is back already I believe, if not at least partly. Since I've installed Messenger Plus! 5.0, I've been seeing my own and my contacts' nicknames again. :) Come to think of it, looking at my contact list, it seems to be only displayed by people ...

Indeed. Hopefully, we can get the custom nickname feature back :D

Plus! 5 is out!
Hey there, welcome :cheesy: You bring up valid points. However, the dev team would argue that after having alot of spam pre release about the lateness of the product, its unfair to complain about a lack of features. Don't worry. New features have b...

Plus! 5 is out!
Hi, first time registering on these forums, but using Plus for some time now. I'm disappointed with the lack of actual features, for example, custom nicknames. Now I know that WLM 2011 no longer supports this feature, but I'm not sure if it would b...

RE: Messenger Plus! Live paves the way towards the release of Plus! 5
The reason to why they released this version was to be able to tell people when Messenger Plus! 5 comes out with full functionality... Microsoft released WLM 2011 earlier than the Messenger Plus! team expected, so they had to rush to make a version ...

RE: WL Messenger 2011 Display Name
Yeah, I know its changed, I do realise it's third parties but when we all got over the stupid fonts and emoticons riddled in our names, just having a first name as our name, or some custom characters was nice. I'm reading the link now. It's just ...

RE: Messenger Plus! Live paves the way towards the release of Plus! 5
Exactly, almost NOTHING works. I don't see the point of releasing this... I'm seeing no difference between using it before(without MP!L) and now after installing MP!L.

RE: Messenger Plus! Live paves the way towards the release of Plus! 5
Nice work... I mean, who prefers partial skins workin than chat logging or custom sounds... the feature of color nicknames was perfectly understandable since that is something that the WLM team changed... but no text formatting, no plus! menu, nothi...

No, Dragunov confuses display names with nicknames. [size=1](Hence why it is always important to use the proper namings of things)[/size] What he means is that your own 'display name', the name you have set for yourself, will be reverted to your r...

RE: Windows Live Essentials 2011 released
Custom nicknames still exist. I don't use them myself, but it would be very odd if those don't carry over.

RE: Windows Live Essentials 2011 released
Do you mean that if I upgrade WLM from build14 to build 15, that all the custom nicknames I assigned to each contact will be lost and will have to be rebuilt manually again? Thanks

RE: Taking away display names is HORRIBLE.
@blackjack Having a custom nickname feature is not a real solution, in whatever form! This is not about being able to set a nickname for your contacts though! This is about [u]your own[/u] name and the inability to set a display name for [u]yourself[...

You will need to contact Microsoft. They will end up asking you this series of questions to prove your identity. https://windowslivehelp.com/PasswordReset.aspx
