I'm terrible with JS but thought hey i'll give it a quick go and failed miserable.
I was wondering if theres a good tut around...
Also if anyone could help me with a script:
What i tried to do was have a command named "/burn" this would result in a message Like "[animation here] *User* burned you *recipient*! [animation here]" but in red text and so thank you for taking the time to read this

Dunno what you mean with [animation] though. You can only show text and emoticons, which might be animated gifs, if that is what you meant.

If you simply want to show the text when you enter the command /burn you don't need any script at all. This can be done with Quick Texts:

Plus! > Preferences & Options > Conversations > Quick Texts > Add...

How would i turn the text red?

And thanks for all the help

You would need to adjust the color of your action messages in the Preferences from blue to red. However that will change it for all /me commands.

Hmm well if anyone knows of a way to change it individually I would appreciate this, thanks for all the help people!

You can't change the color of the entire action message individually. You can however color everything after your user name using the color tags:

/me [c=4]says this is colored in red[/c]
will give:
* CookieRevised says this is colored in red

The /slap command is a Quick Text alias for the action message:
/me slaps (!N) with a large smelly tuna fish

The (!N) tag will be replaced with all the contacts' names in the current chat.
If you want to show their email addresses use the (!M) tag.

You can find all the possible tags if you browse the main Plus! menu in a conversation window. The tag codes are listed beside their description:
Plus! > Insert Special Tag
and
Plus! > Insert Format Tag

I like how plus changes your text in something wrong when you use color tags
to clarify you said purple in the explanation, but red in the example...

What do you mean? It works perfectly here in Messenger Plus! ....
Or do you mean the forum quoting system? (which indeed fux0rs it up a bit)
