O.P. Suggestion to the Contact List
I was just wondering this, umm you know how sometimes your friends change their name on msn and it sometimes take a while for you to find them when you have a large list. I mean, would it be possible to change some of the contact name's colour... So like, it would stand out from the rest or even highlighted.

you could use the custom name feature in MsgPlus! that should do the same thing

You could also use a Plus! Notification to tell when they have changed:

To do this:

Right click a contact > Messenger Plus! Extras > Notifications > Check the options you desire :)

Yeah, I use dis feature... But after they come online, it's hard to find them in the list.

I use custom names and make them bold. This helps me find my friends easier.
Right-click your contact -> Messenger Plus! Extras -> Rename Contact... and set bold and colour in the formatting options.

But the thing with 'custom names' is dat you can't see their emotions anymore...
