Is there a way I can change the default window color for all messenger
windows? And keep them that color? The only place I see where I can do
this is in an instance of a messenger window (while chatting with another
user) by clicking the little paint brush button. When I make the change
there, I see the window color change. But when I'm start chatting with
another person in another window (or even if I start chatting later with the
same person on whose window I changed the color originally), the color
reverts to what it was previously.

So, is there a way to permanently change the window color for all messenger
windows?

thnx,
Christoph

When you've chosen the colour, click the pain brush icon again in the
conversation window and press Set as default colour.

Ok. I just did that but it doesn't seem to solve my original problem. When
I click on the paintbrush now, I see that the color I chose as the default
at
the top part of the color chooser. I click that color and the window
changes
to that color, as it normally does. But as soon as I close the chat window,
it loses the color. When a new chat window opens up, it's set to the old
color.
What's interesting, though, is that the color I selected as default is still
set as
default but the color of the window reverts nevertheless.

thnx,
Christoph
