MSN prettification (Making MSN readable)
Here is a tutorial for people to make MSN readable.

MSN prettification

Write here if you cannot get things working. I may have left some instructions out or something.

I find that using MSN log style is better than the direct copy from the chat. Example is here. You can then do all those find and replace and change color stuff. But I find this style is much easier on the eyes.

If anybody wants to do that, go to you log, then copy down the chat, it will be in a table format. Delete the columns you don't need, and then select table, convert table to text. Pretty easy to do.

The purpose for colour or text size is to instantly know who said what without reading their name.

May I suggest people who post MSN chats post a summary of important points on top of the transcript? This could save some time for some people (like me ). I'd really appreciate it.

Sounds good, but we also need to provide employment for forum overseers.
