RE: Background changer
It should be in the Plus! menu under the Plus! icon on your contact list.

Background Changer script needs altering
Hei

I don't make scripts but I am a programmer so if I had time I guess I could do... but I don't have time so there for I turn to you out there who does and possibly the person who made this script originally...

The Background Changer script has one MAJOR bug.. yes.. see I run multiple messenger programs and if I change the background in one of them it changes for all of them.

Please could someone look into the possibility to update the scripts so that is does this. And please Quickly. I by default make different look to the different messenge rcontact lists so that I can easly tell them apart, so yes desperately need this.

Thanks,
Presley

There's no way to do this. Messenger reads the background out of LVBack.gif, and so you can't specify a different path for each instance of messenger. Hope that made sense ;)

O.P. RE: Background Changer script needs altering
i made the script...
Sorry this cant be done, all it does is copy the image to lvback.gif in the wlm folder. This image cant be different for multiple wlms.

Uhhh, no it doesn't. You're not supposed to be running more than one instance of WLM anyways. If you choose to modify the way that messenger does things, microsoft is not responsible for what happens.

I know this, but don't you agree that making the limitations of only being able to run login on 1 account is a drawback of WLM. There are other IM software out there who for ages have allowed multiple logins, and I see it as only natural that people have multiple logins. Especially since messenge rin the beginning only allowed 50 contacts in the contact list. Me I have a work IM and a personal IM as we use IM at work, hence the need for multiple sign ins.

What I am saying is that MEssenger is lacking this functionality... hence a seriouse flaw in my eyes.. and it was said as a funny note.

Cheers

To avoid the problem, maybe you can install multiple WLM in different directories ... so it will works ... maybe a strange, that's true but will work for sure ;)

See you !
