I do think your site has the information but it does need a new design. I could do it if you want as well but i'll probably do a quick job and it would have the design of my site :P Which isnt that good :(

when Contact Statuses change, it would be great if the popup was clickable to start a conversation with that person. :)

That's something I've been thinking about ;)

Again, something I wish to do.

Hopefully, I'll get some original suggestions too! Nothing against what's here so far - makes me more likely to do it ;)

Btw, I think Phoenix is a great plugin!(Y)


RE: Phoenix Suggestions by RaceProUK on 04-13-2005 at 12:47 PM

Hmm... this'll bump... oh well.

Another thing I wish to do.

Come on people: anything at all!

How about ability to make solid & faded Color Nicks and Messages?? Or random color messages, of course Tabbed Convo's are NEEDED lol!!!


RE: Phoenix Suggestions by Dempsey on 04-13-2005 at 07:31 PM

something that's still on my todo list somewhen once i have some time, but you're welcome to try is sorting recivieved files into folders per sender, eg

My Recieved Files\email@hotmail.com\work.doc
My Recieved Files\email@hotmail.com\picture.jpg
My Recieved Files\email2@hotmail.com\morework.doc

etc

Im pretty sure that Matty is working on this in his File Organiser plugin. so there's no need to worry about this one :)

I knew it! Tabbed conversations! I knew that'd be suggested at aome point!
Seriously though, I could easily do the first three.
* RaceProUK writes them down so he can remember them
* RaceProUK may consider tabbed convos, but don't hold your breath...

Matty's working on a recived file organiser by filetype, not by sender email address.  I was working on it, but i havent had mch time lately and as you were asking for suggestions I thought I might as well suggest it.
RE: Phoenix Suggestions by riahc4 on 04-14-2005 at 06:47 PM

Phoenix isnt really attacting me that much, reset Plus! password is more like a security breach, but oh well...

1: Swap title/artist in MSN 7's PSM
2. Hide emails in conversation window (your chatting in front of a friend and dont want him/her to view the email of the person)
3. Reload all Plus! plugins instantly
4. Ability to skin MSN
5. (Difficult one here) Capture webcam video/image/screen or/and capture audio.

Thats all I can think of for now...

I actually thuoght of a way to sort files by email address. Dempsey PM me and I will share it with you, it is probably a much easier way then what you are doing now.

It's designed to work only on the account that's currently signed in, and you have to be signed in to use it.
Actually, a while back I posted my concerns about this, and was subsequently reassured that the password doesn't protect anything like personal details, and isn't really a security breach.

2. Noted
3. Plugin Reloader by TB can do this already (it's in the Plugins DB)
4. There's already a skin manager program (http://www.messengerskins.net/ I think)
5. For what purpose?

As for suggestion 1, a little background:
In the Messenger folder is a file called psmsong.dll. This DLL is the WMP plugin for the 'What I'm listening to' feature. One of the resources specifies the order of title and artist, and by reshacking, this roder can be changed.
This will not affect the order other media players' plugins arrange the data, as the arrangement is plugin-dependent, not decided by Messenger.
Therefore, if it's possible, it's going to be extremely difficult.

Note: This is the result of many post edits...

1. But couldnt you make MSN swap the display order it shows? Or maybe your plugin could receive the data from the media player, reorder it, and plug it into the PSM as a blue music link (but im not sure if emulating the music link has been discovered yet)
2. OK. Thanks.
3. Looked in the Plugin DB.......didnt find it. Could someone hook me up with a link?
4. Yea but a contact of mine gave me a plugin to test out that allowed to change .GIF/.JPG in folders which were related to several aspects of MSN (menus, scroll bars, ect)
5. To log video and audio.

Some useful while others useless features (some these from MessengerDiscovery):
1. Send Contacts Fake Error Messages
2. Send Contacts Fake Application Invites
3. Sign in with a personal status that can be selected and already applied when signed in.




RE: Phoenix Suggestions by RaceProUK on 04-14-2005 at 09:59 PM

1. I'll look into how the mechanism works, and if I can figure it out, I'll try it ;)
2. I've actually read some interesting stuff about conversation windows... the number of RTF controls they have is 6, apparently
3. Attachment
4. The biggest problem with that is Messenger has to be closed. Therefore, it's better as an external program.
5. There's plenty of loggers out there somewhere, most of which will be able to do far more than I could do.

As for the next three:
1,2. MD can do this as it is a proxy, and proxies are again best as external programs. Plus I don't want to steal too many features...
3. This would probably be better as part of Plus.


RE: Phoenix Suggestions by R0cK3TttttT on 04-18-2005 at 06:40 PM

I was thanking, how about Colored PSM's and or Clickable URL's in PSM's in  the new messenger 7.0.0777...I dunno maybe impossible or not popular...THX!

That's something that'd be better in Plus IMO. At the moment, it doesn't put the colour codes in.

If you mean that PSMs cant be colored, well yes they can....
RE: Phoenix Suggestions by RaceProUK on 04-19-2005 at 09:30 PM

I've tried putting colour codes into the PSM, and they just disappear.

In the header of the contact list they aint visable....but if you add yourself you'll see that your PSM is colored
