O.P. Messenger Plus! 2.50 - New Feature
Hello,

I was thinking about what more to add in Messenger Plus! yesterday and I thought about one popular thing: tools to change your text color with more than the 16 default colors Messenger gives you. These tools do their job well, but there are some major drawbacks, like the fact that you can't change your text color quickly. You need to launch a special tool, select your profile, select a color and restart Messenger (which can be pretty annoying). Adding a similar option to do the same thing in Messenger Plus! would have been pointless (and I try not to add features already done by other tools... that's what is called "fair competition").

So, what did I do about it? well, I gues that thos screenshots talk by themselves... this way is the most simple way possible and does NOT require you to restart Messenger fo the change to apply. I hope you'll enjoy, and of course, that's only one of the many new features you'll discover soon :). Let me know what you think about it!

Urg.. I contacted my ISP about your site not loading, Patchou. It was a problem with what they did, but they seem to have done it again, because your site and others won't access for me or my friends who are on the same ISP, so could you or someone post the pics that Patchou has linked above? :'(

nope, it's fully integrated and applied immediately :)

As for problems with your ISP, I really can't do anything myself I'm sorry.. you should change of ISP if they can't even access the normal web :p
