Hello everyone,

I'm sorry but I'm new at this.  Not sure if I should be posting my question here but I couldn't find a place to post my question in the home page.  So I'm terribly sorry if I posted in the wrong place.  Anyhow, I was wondering if there is a way to modify my Displayname on msn messenger.  Does anyone know how to:

1) To increase the characters entered in the Displayname? 
    Currently there is a limit.
2) Change the size of font or the color of the Displayname?
3) Add different language like Chinese characters?


I did manage to change the font color using the Messenger Plus but for some reason my friends couldn't see it.  Could it be because they didn't install Messenger Plus because after they installed it they were able to see it.  Same with the status.

That's a lot of questions but if anyone can help that'll be great!

Thanks!

Marci
