But I think that using BBcodes will waste more spaces in nickname than the old .$3. etc

The old tagging method is also supported in Msgplus! Live. You can switch between both methods in the preferences .

That doesn't mean formatting from the format buttons will be IRC style. The only thing the option changes is what appears when you use the Ctrl shortcuts, which is bad for a favorite fan of the IRC style like me. =( The option should change what formatting style the buttons will do too. Besides, I love how there is a tiny popup window where we can choose color after doing Ctrl+K. Why doesn't Plus bring this back for both IRC and BB?

Also, I have a suggestion for the custom nicknam feature. Instead of having a frame in the preferences dialogue for custom names like 3.63, we could have something like Office 2007 in Plus! Live. In Office 2007 (still in beta), we get a popup window just like how we used to get in Plus! 3.63 when we click Ctrl+K. The popup will appear when highlighted some text. The popup will have some formatting buttons in it. We can get something like this when Nicknames are highlighted while editting. I'll make a screeny. =D

Edit: Here comes screeny

Sorry if this doesn't look that great, done in paint. Anyways, the first and second buttons are obvious. The third and fourth are color and bg color respectively. How is that?
