screens:

little flash file that shows the !text and !mytext commands here

It's not a plugin for you don't need plus! to use it, but a lot of people have been talking about plugins like these @ this forum so please keep this thread here :)

Probably it still contains some bugs and some things have to be improved.
This is a feature list copied from the site:

I don't want to diss your program, but I have to say something about it not being a plugin. If you're using the Messenger API Library, this is a bad choice. Reasons:
  • You will probably get errors on XP.
  • The tool probably isn't compatibly with polygamy.

nice plugin.....but after using stuffplug's oversized dp option i dont want to go back to a small dp.... and if i want it to stay big apparently i have to press ok to keep the original size of the dp every time it changes so i'll stick with my one big display picture instead of many small display pictures

:O Are you sure you've got windows messenger installed? If you did you could try the help--> recheck msn status when you're signed in

I can't do anything about that, maybe the blasp could make a feature 'always resize' and 'never resize' instead of getting notified or not when the picture is bigger than 96x96
I'll think of a custom sized ddp editor :p
