Conversation windows looking like a chat-room by franksmagic on 03-16-2008 at 03:53 PM

Hi guys!

Is it possible to get your msn conversation windows looking like a chat-room? For example:

Bob: Hello
Andy: Hi
Bob: What's up?
Andy: .....
Bob: ....

You know what I mean? So it looks very simple and clean. Not like

Bob says:
Hello

Andy says:
Hi
........

Is there a script or tool to do that?

bye,
frank

You can use A-Patch to remove the "says:", here's a screenshot:

I think it would be better to have the name and message on separate lines, because some contacts have long names so it would become hard to read. Example:

quote:
ThisIsAContactWithAVeryLongName-BlahBlahBlah says: Hello there

Bob: Hey

ThisIsAContactWithAVeryLongName-BlahBlahBlah says: How are you?

...You get the point ;)

But I don't know if it's possible.

Hi Chris!

Thanks for your fast reply!

And yes, you're right! Lol, I had a look at my contact list and there are many people with long nicknames, especially those coloured ones.

I think I have to accept that my MSN won't be able to look like a chat :-P But after your argument it might be better lol

greetz,
frank
