RE: Colour Names
In the chat window press Ctrl + K, pick any colour you like and type what you want to say :)

Very Simple, and you can do multi-colours over and over as well as as Ctrl + B for bold and more..

Yes, it is. Do not try to copy your name to the Options dialog box, but use the /nick command.

Instead of copying it, like Tochjo said just press enter/send after your done and it should (with the /nick command) set it as your nickname, you do not need to open your personal settings to change :)

RE: Colour Names
Copying the code will not work, as the square character is considered invalid by MSN. This also means that NickEXP will not work, unless you use it with the /nick command.
