Yes, but that's not the thing. It is WLM itself which displays the colors.
The controls used for displaying the screennames are 'standard' windows controls (thus from WLM itself), Messenger Plus! does not change that. What Messenger Plus! does is manipulating the text in these RichText controls from simple pure black text to text with controls characters/tags which define what color to use; Much like you format text on the forum, or for a website.
So, Messenger Plus! makes it only possible to use the already existing color codes so to speak, by enabling rich text manipulation (which already exists, but is otherwise disabled and completely hidden from the user)....
But if those controls don't support the otherwise standard codes, or interpret them differently, then it is not the fault of Messenger Plus!, but from WLM.
Compare it to a website designer who makes a webpage. That webdesigner (=Messenger Plus) can create some fancy looking texts. But if the browser doesn't support those codes, or if it interpret them differently than normal (eg: you tell it to use red, but the browser colors it brown), it is not the webdesigner's fault.
.....if that make any sense
