How do I change the text color, like "Me" and "buddy" and their names?

How do I change the text color, like "Me" and "buddy" and their names?

Edit the templates (the .IVT file). IEView supports several variables. One of them is %name% which is replaced with either your or your buddys nickname (depends on the message type - incoming/outgoing).

Colors are in the stylesheet.

I think thats too complicated for me.

Where do I actually edit the colors?

with the new version of IEView, is it possible to see our own avatar from the MSN settings in the message window?

Well, it's always been possible to see your MSN avatar. You simply needed to point to "MirandaMSNavatar.png". But it's easier now, since you just have to use the new variable %avatarOut%.

Keep in mind though that %avatarOut% doesn't work with MSN Protocol 0.4.0.1 + IEView 1.0.1.10... the filename of your own avatar has been changed to "MSN avatar.png" in the new version of the protocol.

Satin has been updated :)

You can now show protocols instead of "Me" or "Buddy". It requires the latest IEView (1.0.2.0)

For some reason when I double message, it makes a new bubble around the text, not continue the old one.

are you sure you have message grouping enabled and the latest tabsrmm/ieview ?

#267792

oooh, so that's what message grouping does.

I had to turn it off because it wasn't showing the messages I got.

#267796

If you dont see the messages when message grouping is enabled most of the time is because you have an old tabsrmm/ieview or the template you are using doesnt support it but every template made by russell or me has message grouping support.

@russellc: thanks for the update buddy, I'm just wondering if there is anyway to have a background with Satin, just like Smoothoperator?

#268278

making satin png transparent would mean redoing the entire thing..it'd be a pretty big waste of time. i'm currently designing a template that me and karma will be doing..
