Imanwinner1 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Hi, how do i get different fonts for my screen names?? Several of my contacts have them, yet i can't seem to find how to change the text. Here's a pic of the font my friends use: (can be slow loading at times) Just found out the text is MS Shell Dlg 2 Thanks Note: Before you ask, Yes i do have the latest version of Windows Live Messenger, the same version as my contacts. :) Ex-Members Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I believe you can do this with alt codes, though I'm probably wrong. 2257AD.TUMBLR.COM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggzs Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Open Word or a word processor, use symbols to get desired name. Copy and paste said name into Windows Live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pryomancer Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 It might be to do with MSN Plus, although I'm not sure. The Alt codes sounds logical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skill_Caster Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 It might be to do with MSN Plus, although I'm not sure. The Alt codes sounds logical. No, MSN Plus just places ugly codes into screen names/im conversations that is parsed when viewed by another client with MSN Plus. To those who don't have it, in my opinion, it looks like you choose your screen name by punching your keyboard. For the names, I believe it is alt-codes. I found a resource here (WoT Safety Card).

XHuskyX Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Get MSN Plus and get the name changer add - on. :) Here WL Name Editor Script Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skill_Caster Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Get MSN Plus and get the name changer add - on. :) Here WL Name Editor Script Here Like I just said above your post...while I'm not sure if it has alt-code capabilities, mostly everything else produced by the MSN Plus add-on is only viewable to other clients with the add-on installed, otherwise it looks like "S#([c=3]kill #(30-9-)C#($)aster". Seriously. Your best bet is to go find an alt-code website and skip out on this add-on that's riddled with nasty spyware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skill_Caster Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 The above post is correct. And even though they give you the option to choose what you want installed, to me it's a repulsive thought to have anything even related to having malware on my hardware. For the proof: Detailed Download Analysis Courtesy of McAffe. Example post from site review: "Adware is not optional. You download it, you get the screen to install the adware, you can do either but no matter what it installs the adware onto the computer. Oddly, the adware activated after about 4 months of use."

evil_mumm_ra Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 i've been using msn plus for longer than 4 months, my registry is clean of anything suspicious, my application data has nothing weird, nothing. i've had no problems with it. even on the few occasions i do use ie, i've not had problems with popups. all of those things are listed as symptoms of the spyware, i have none of them.
