Suggestion about DOT by brianjdupuis on 09-25-2008 at 12:18 AM
Just a quick suggestion when the new version of Plus comes out. When you are in a conversation that there is an option to get rid of that little dot before a sentence in the New Windows Live Messenger.
AND WOW it's been along time since I have been on here!

It's probably possible using a reshack, but MP!L is not yet compatible with WLM 9.0 BETA
RE: Suggestion about DOT by Sunshine on 09-25-2008 at 11:38 AM
You can already do that, just go to Tools > Options > Messages and uncheck "Group sequential messages from each contact together".

Are you referring to the colon (
which comes after the display name and before sent messages?

IIRC that is only if you send a command such as /me after you have already sent a message, else it starts on a clear line, with no formatting or symbols

Right, well to get back to the original topic, I assume it would be possible using skinning as well (one Plus! is released for WLM9).

It's not an image, it's text
Correct, It's an image, not text

Yay, I'm right.

Actually if skins can remove the "says" part, they probably can remove the dot before the messages in a similar way. But tbh I'm not sure whether a skin can do that or not. Lets wait and see that Willz has to say on this.

Then it can be removed easily with skinning. Though, someone who knows how to create DLL skins must do it for you.

Ah, yeah, just signed into the 9 Beta and I see what it is
Hmm, it is very annoying now that I notice it
That definitely needs to go
