I still can't get color in my nickname by Jeroentje on 05-23-2004 at 03:26 PM

Hi,

I was told here, by a moderator I think, that the possibility to get color in a nickname would be readded to Messenger plus! 3 (I am using msn messenger 6.2)

But I still can't get it to work. Was I misinformed? plz help.

The ability to set colors in your nick has been part of plus since the begining of plus 2. Now, in plus 3 you can still have a colored nick. Here are the steps needed:

Open a conversation window.
type /nick
leave a blank space
type your nick using colors, formatting options, etc... what you want
press enter

to add colors, press Ctrl + K and pick up a color
To know more about the formatting options, read these 2 tutorials of msgplus.net:

note: some images at those links are missing. that's because they're updating the web and it's still not complete.
