RE: HELP!!! Message window & input window issue....
As for the amount of colors: hmmm.. never noticed it until now that you're actually using MSN Messenger, thus not the latest Windows Live Messenger 8.5... In those previous versions you indeed had 16 colors listed there.
As for what you've requested: Well, isn't the screenshot already showing the exact thing you want? The background is showing thru with a frost effect in the chat area of the conversation window...
If you want another background, simply select your choice of background from the background menu. It is the background which dictates what you'll see in the chat area; if the background has some flashy colors, you'll see frosted flashy colors. If the background has a red box in that same place, you'll see a light red (frosted red) color in the chat area.
EDIT: the problem might be that in very early versions, the chat area was always opaque (I need to check this again, it has been way too long). In the newer versions, that area will be half transparant.
And you probably downloaded and installed a newer MSN Messenger version with Firefox.
Unless you make a skin with Messenger Plus!, I don't think you can make that area totally opaque again (unless maybe with some small patch). But I certainly do not recommend downgrading to an earlier version again because of security reasons!!
What is the exact and complete build number of the version you're running now (you can look this up in the about window of Messenger)? And what is your Windows version?
