suggestion: add feature by sandra on 11-11-2005 at 03:47 AM
i have a suggestion, why not add a feature in the next version of msg plus which allows users to change the font of their display name as easily as changing the font colour of it.

Not possible.

its possible. if you can change the colour of your display name, why not?

I'd imagine something to do with the way protocol works?... But I'm not exactly sure. With this version of Plus! with custom names, you can make them bold, italic, and colored.... I know there's something in Plus! Tweak that could change the font... Or at least there used to be. I'M NOT sure if it's in it... But I remembered seeing something. And if it is it's for all contacts... not just different ones you'd chose for different fonts.

That's the thread if you'd like to try it.
EDIT:... I'm probably wrong... believe Matty 
... but you could try it.

You posted in the Forum/Website
There is a description underneath it that says:
Questions, suggestions and ideas concerning the Messenger Plus! Extension Forums.
quote:The Plus! tweak only changes the font for the Plus! windows it does not change it for MSN Messenger. Like I said earlier it would have to be implemented through MSN Messenger itself. Patchou refuses to add Client to Client communication, (which is what would be needed to be done to send fonts). If he didn't care then Plus! would check each contact with a specific packet message to see if they have Plus!.
