So here's the story...
I've changed my background to some dark colour using the lvback doobery...
Also Changed colours of contact names so I can actually see them (looks kinda funky)

BUT...

Now the only thing left is the black of the "status" text (i.e. (offline),(away), etc)

Any way of doing that simply?
maybe some avid skinners out there could give me a hand.

yes u can change the color of your OWN status, just type /nick2 then press alt+k, choose the color then right your nickname and thats it.

P.S

im not sure if you can do it with your other contacts, sorry

I think you can, by having a colour code at the end of the custom name you give. I would check right now, but I'm currently under Linux.

i tried out what raceprouk said so my contacts cuztom name is 11(!N)11 and i tried it as 11(!N) but it still stays blak

EDIT - I did sum testing and i found that if the contact has given themself a custom name (ie used colournick) the status will appear in their colour in your list

ah well...i guess i just have to live with what i've got.

thanks anyway guys

Yes, the only way for them to have colored status is when they use the /nick2 command.

When you color their names it uses the "/nick command", so it'll add the format reset tag at the end.

Erm...

Whenever i use the /nick or /nick2 function in the convo window it gives me the following error.
