RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by Chrono on 06-21-2004 at 04:25 PM

could u change it to "Messenger Plus! 3 instead of "Msn Plus 3"? i know im being picky, but that's the real name of the program :P (non M$u know...)

Pretty usefull tbh, well done.


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by stevonw on 06-21-2004 at 04:26 PM

no problem im changing it right now


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by Concord Dawn on 06-21-2004 at 04:28 PM

Also show the difference between /nick and /nick2.


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by stevonw on 06-21-2004 at 04:33 PM

can someone please specify what he means?


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by Chrono on 06-21-2004 at 04:35 PM

nick2 wont add the "ctrl+o" character at the end of ur nick, so u can "modify" the 'says' word by, as an example, adding white font to it to make it dissappear..


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by stevonw on 06-21-2004 at 04:36 PM

oh didnt know that lol


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by stevonw on 06-21-2004 at 04:39 PM

lol :P

test for urself, type /nick <ur nickname> *ctrl+k and choose white* and hit enter..
send a message.
then type /nick2 <ur nickname> *ctrl+k and choose white* hit enter then send a message...

see the difference?

the slightly updated video is here :

http://stevonw0210290.tripod.com/sitebuilderconte...s/colour_names.exe


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by Chrono on 06-21-2004 at 04:45 PM

lol, the ! (explamation thingy) is after the Plus word :P
i mean "Messenger Plus! 3" :chrongue:

About nick2 (if u dont get it yet)..:

When you use /nick with a nick that has colors or formatting (bold, italic, etc...), Plus! adds a "Ctrl + O" (format reset) at the end. That's useful when you don't want that the "says:" has a format and when you use /me or auto-messages so they are displayed correctly.

/nick2 is the same but it never adds the "Ctrl + O".


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by stevonw on 06-21-2004 at 04:47 PM

someone check the video 2 see if it is ok please?


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by dotNorma on 06-21-2004 at 05:19 PM

It's cool, it's simple, even an idiot could change their name now lol :P


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by reisyboy on 06-21-2004 at 06:01 PM

I have one question im sure the video will be of much use to people but why have you made in an exe? if its just for compression you should tell people that so they dont get spooked... :)


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by jren207 on 06-21-2004 at 06:04 PM

I thought it was a Macromedia Projector file (a flash file embedded into a player for people who dont have a standalone flash player) because they are usually .exe


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by reisyboy on 06-21-2004 at 06:29 PM

fair enough just looks fiashy when i see exe's lol :)


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by dotNorma on 06-21-2004 at 06:59 PM

Nevermind , I got it working but accidently saved it as a Binary Application.

The movie is good , But its not the greatest for people using 800 by 600. I suggest making the conversation window in the video not to be maximized. My screen couldnt fit it all because Ir un 800 by 600.


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by matty on 06-22-2004 at 03:38 AM

Its Messenger Plus!3 not Messenger Plus 3! as you have in your title 8-)

You have it for both the Main Title of the Window and the opening screen, other then that, good work


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by stevonw on 06-22-2004 at 07:16 AM

i will change the name again, sorry

and would you like me 2 make it a flash file rather then an exe?


RE: Small Video On How 2 Get Coloured Names (In-case ppl dont know how) by stevonw on 06-22-2004 at 07:17 AM

has anyone got any Messenger Plus Wallpaper 800 x 600 to add into it?
