BBB Chat...

[MrOats]

I have a new idea for the BBB Chat room. Why not have the chat with fonts and colors? I have been to the BBB chat, and it's OK; but if it had fonts and colors, I would probably stay longer. When things are aesthetically pleasing to me, I just like them longer. With the current font/color, it is really ruff and non-apealing. This may encourage other people to join the BBB Chat as well. It would make the chat feel more "cozy" to other and all members. Just a suggestion...

It's IRC, there is no color and smilies and all that crap from Y! chats. You can change your own colors manually, if you get a client like mIRC. It will change it for your computer only, and if you want other people to see color, you Ctrl+k to change your color temporarily. Again, if you want it "aesthetically pleasing" for yourself change the colors in mIRC by pressing the little button that looks like crayons, and you can change it all you want.

A. You can get scripts for mIRC.
B. IRC is kind of simple, but it works.
C. I think it works the way it is. I hate the idea of chats having to be "attractive". In Trillian all incoming and outgoing messages a are a solid black on white 12 point font Tahoma =).

But that's just me.
