It's explained in this post

The only problem with using features like this, is that non-messenger plus users see lots of other characters instead of the formatting. Is there a work around for this?

Yes tell them to download Plus! as well. Other then that no there isn't. Plus! formats the codes into colours and if they don't have it well it shows as numbers.

To use colour in your name, just open a conversation window, type /nick and a space and press ctrl-k. Then click the colour you want, type your name and press enter. If you want to use multiple colours, just use ctrl-k in your name multiple times, right before where you want the colour to show up. Take a look at the following example:


Additionally, you can also take a look at http://www.msgplus.net/help_tutorials.php?tut=contactlist-colors

Won't this just change the colour of your name for as long as you are having a conversation with that person? Also, won't it only be visible with the person in that convo (assuming they also have Messenger Plus!)?
