We cannot figure out how to get the second channel icon to appear.
Also we are in desparate need of a tone option. So that when you talk to someone you can hear when they respond instead of needing to sit and watch a box. We are a work site so people are reading and posting etc not just waiting for the next response in the box. Chatzy.com has this option and presently we keep several windows open and can hear when some one logs a response and can flip back to the site to read and respond. Just a little beep tone or bell tone that sounds when a new message is added.
Needs to be a user option--enable and disable from the chat box itself for when you want to ignore what is going on there.
Any thoughts?
I am NOT a computer programer so I am a begger looking for a morsel.......you could start with could it be done and if yes---could pm your fees to do it.
The only thing that could be done would be to tweak the warn system so that it plays a tone upon new message along with the blinking icon.
About the second channel icon, what have you exactly done ?

we have created two additional channels and tried several different thing in the "name" setting. It seems that we cannot figure out what file to tell it to look to for the icon. we have tried the nosel and sel despite the fact that the instruction is not to.
Is the tweak for the tone a customiztion that you would be willing to contract on? If so could you quote me a charge via pm?
Also, how do we get the commands to work---particularly the one to clear the screen.
