Not a scooby if this has been suggested before but I couldn't find anything on it.

Due to some technical difficulties, a friend of mine needs to make the transition from MSN to some other form of IMing system. We've decided Skype's probably best, I've been very much so pleased to see a MsgPlus for Skype being developed, so installed straight away.

However, I was a little bit more than disappointed to find the in text formatting not available. We very often use it for emphasis, EMPHASIS, and other such fun things that gives the text more personality than the creepy yellow emotes that haunt the dreams of young children.

Regardless of my bantering. I'd love to see BBcode incorporated, custom emotes would be great too, but mostly BBcode.

I second this request. : )  I found the BBCodes very useful.  I can't use Skype currently because of this issue.  I need to be able to bold, italic, and underline certain words during a conversation.

I would love to see this feature added to Skype Plus!
