| | Contacts online colour change to darker, more readable colour. Hi I recently downloaded the new windows live messenger. The only major problem so far I can see is that I can't clearly see the number of contacts online per category. It's way too light for my monitor . Is there any way to fix it. |

| | Re: Contacts online colour change to darker, more readable colour. Greetings, Messenger basically sets its own colour scheme, so there's no direct way to change this colour. However, it might (I do not know this for certain) that a Messenger Plus skin could be used to change this colour. You might consider making a skin request for this over at the Plus forum here: http://msghelp.net/forumdisplay.php?fid=42 Or alternatively mess around with some of the ones already made for 2009: http://www.msgpluslive.net/skins/by-date/ Of course this will require Messenger Plus Live to be installed (http://mirror2.msgpluslive.net/MsgPlusLive-479b.exe). -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2009 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "thedaz_2003" <thedaz_2003@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:186182D6-A82A-40F1-8F4A-76EA70827D79@xxxxxx Quote: > Hi > > I recently downloaded the new windows live messenger. > > The only major problem so far I can see is that I can't clearly see the > number of contacts online per category.

| | Re: Contacts online colour change to darker, more readable colour. Just a follow-up since I was in skin-land earlier today. The Avalon Concept 2009 skin will let you change the colour of the categories, which also changes the number indicator as well: http://www.msgpluslive.net/skins/vie...-Concept-2009/ The option is in the Skin's options under the backgrounds. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2009 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" <msnewsreplies@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:OXDu2gYgJHA.3812@xxxxxx Quote: > Greetings, > > Messenger basically sets its own colour scheme, so there's no direct way to change this > colour. > > However, it might (I do not know this for certain) that a Messenger Plus skin could be used > to change this colour.
