How can I put instead of yahoo messenger on the top of it put my name then messenger? I could do it with 5.6 but I dont remember the file I edited to do that what file is it? anyone know?
Would you have to edit one of the skin files? Browse through the skins folder and have a look in there, I imagine it would be fairly easy to edit it if you found the right part. I’m not sure of the exact file though.
It wasnt a skin file, it was this Nhryvana site that told me what file to edit and I cant find the site now if I had that site I could figure it out if its set up the same way 5.6 was the file that is..
http://www.nhyrvana.com/ She used to post on here it was a quick use of search that brought up the site. I believe this is the one for which you were searching. 🙂
the file he is referring too is called the ymsgr.ini file which should be in the in the messenger folder inside yahoo folder itself.
Ensure that yahoo is turned off and then click on this file
it should say this if not delete it and copy and paste it all from the very top left of the ini file.

Ya see the part where it says caption= now dont leave a spacebar gap after the = just type in something like bigblueball and then save that file.
So when you now load up yahoo the main messenger will say bigblueball or whatever word you wish to put in there.
Thanks a lot it worked, I was able to Space and it worked just fine it now says Nick’s Messenger. I appreciate yall helping me out.
