yes i do appreciate that is how you get around it presently, however who is to say your only going to have 2 groups of people that you want to customise colours for remember i only defined the colours for 2 groups of where i wanted to use special colours, if i did it your way where would i go to set the gradient that i want to use for everyone else that isnt in those groups? its just a thought you could define gradient groups by clicking and add gradient group button which launches the gradient group setup window. and then the main window for bbcode and irc would be for setting individual gradients against each and every contact seperately.

I understand what you are after but this is a huge amount of coding (and thinking, planning, etc.) which atm I can't really find too much time for.  I plan to first make the script able to also preform gradient backgrounds as it seems to be quite wanted and wouldn't require too much adaptation from what I have already (most will just be copy and paste ).  After I do the backgrounds I think I might have to move into more complicated coding like what you are asking for to be able to expand upon the script and keep it moving along (I know I on't want to see this script be limited in any way, shape or form).  It is a great idea and I'll try to implement it one day but it will just have to wait a while before getting in there just because of the complexity of it (just like tabbed chats being put into WLM by microsoft I guess).  Thanks for the continued imput and ideas, it is greatly appreciate
