New feature - Colour of WLM icon by Jimbo on 02-10-2007 at 09:59 PM

Maybe in a future release of plus!, there could be a new feature to change the colour of the WLM icon in the system tray and the taskbar.
Just an idea
Example of taskbar orange colour:

whats the point? If it was added i think it would be a feature that would just take up space then be usefull.

What i meant was, that if it was added, not many people would use it and its not really a useful feature.

More people would find it useful if they have so many icons the same or similar colour.

In fact it would even be handy if each account could have it's own colour, together with polygamy, it would be very effective.

I'm with Discrate on this one. I don't think many people would use it.

That would be an excellent idea, and maybe even an option to colout the icon of certain chats like Red could be family, blue friends etc

I couldn't be bothered with setting colours for each contact, their name kinda says it all =/

But for polygamy it could be quite useful, one account normal colours, second account red, etc.

This is more the idea for a skinning program. :)
It's not really a feature that fits Plus!


RE: New feature - Colour of WLM icon by Nathan on 02-12-2007 at 07:01 PM

Thats where you are slightly wrong.
Patchou is going to embed into plus a way to easily skin wlm :)

Can you show me where he said this, as far as I know it was only an easy way of skinning the Messenger Plus interfaces (because there are some problems atm).

Exactly, IIRC & AFAIK its only Messenger Plus!.

So sorry to bump this thread but i want to know if it can be added and it will be very useful in polygamy as you could set one icon to say green, and another to red etc.
Patchou...?
