I know you have the default messenger ones, but a.) I like the time to be more accurate than just hours and minutes, and b.) I like them at the beginning of the name and not the end

I'm on Kangie's side for this...I need the greater accuracy too! I used to love this feature on SP2.

it would be good if u can some how manage to get the contact local time, so we can see there actually time, and they can see ours in the chat window.
btw, Kangie idea is good also. -------------------- ---StuffPlug 3 given [S]uper [P]owers to Windows Live Messenger---

I personally don't use timestamps, but when I had a look at it a while back, I know what you're all on about.
Yes! Bring it back! -------------------- |

QUOTE(auzak @ Jan 13 2007, 03:29 PM)  an option for a customizable timestamp would be cool =D i agree, it would be nice if you could set -- in the option menu -- if you prefer hh:mm:ss (hours, minutes, seconds) or hh:mm... ofcourse there would be an option to put the time stamps in the begin of each Name ( where this is all about? )@ coolzee, i don't think it's a really good idea to display the time of you contact, as it would probb take it from there windows clock? or what ever? but if it would be possible -- i guess it's not for some protocol reasons  -- then (for someone in the same timezone) if my PC time is at 18:02, but that from my friend is 18:04, it would confuse me like hell This post has been edited by Enne: Jan 13 2007, 04:59 PM -------------------- --== He who controls the past, commands the future. ==-- ** He who commands the future, conquers the past. ** ее We all....Command....And....Conquer.... ее |

If it would display the time of your contact, it would tell the difference from your computer, much like the Timezone script for MsgPlus! Live. Although the only flaw with this script is you must set the time difference between you and your contact, which isn't all that bad really, but at least it gives you accuracy compared to your time at the moment.
Or, alternaivly, you could make it so it sends a signal to somewhere like time.microsoft.com and obtain the time of what it's meant to be and then change it depending on where your contact is, meaning they might need to enter their GMT difference somewhere. It's a little confusing but I hope you get what I mean. -------------------- |

I understand but is there a way for it to search for there timezone automatically? meaning they wont need SP3 for me to see there time over there. might be a bit of coding.. |

Well if that were true then I would be hoping future Windows releases wouldn't need to ask you that question when installing it. As far as I'm aware that's not possible with out a minimal amount of end-user input. -------------------- |

lol i was thinking more of the time you sent or received the messages.. nothing to do with the timezones.. maybe a tag on receiving their messages or something like that..
