I was wondering if there is anyway you could add new colours or even make a custom colour palette.
It would also be wicked if there was an option that allows users to set the background colour of each different channel they are in.

A) Press alk+k (color dialog) and right click on a color (Sorry watchdog) box. Form there you can alter each number.
B) /help /background

Type /colour background 3 The background should change to green. Type /colour background 0 Now it should change back to plain white. Colour numbers are 0 White 1 Black 2 Navy Blue 3 Green 4 Red 5 Brown 6 Purple 7 Orange 8 Yellow 9 Light Green 10 Cyan 11 Light Blue 12 Dark Blue 13 Fuchsia (Pink) 14 Dark Grey 15 Light Grey The /colour command will work as "/colour" the correct spelling or "/color" the incorrect spelling, just depends on where you are and what you are used to.

Okay, finally got it! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Assign %bgcolor.<channel> the background color and it will (or should) change the background. If you'd like a popup to help, here ya go:
on 1:JOIN:#: {
if ($nick == $me) && (%bgcolor. [ $+ [ $chan ] ] != $null) /background -f bg\ $+ %bgcolor. [ $+ [ $chan ] ] $+ .bmp
}
alias bgcolor {
if ($dialog(bgcolor)) /dialog -vie bgcolor bgcolor
else /dialog -m bgcolor bgcolor
}
dialog bgcolor {
title "Background Color"
size -1 -1 120 25
option dbu
box "Assign Background Color (<chan>)", 1, 0 0 120 25
combo 10, 5 10 60 50, size drop
button "Set", 20, 65 10 25 10, okay
button "Cancel", 30, 90 10 25 10, cancel
}
on 1:DIALOG:bgcolor:INIT:*: {
/set %bgchan $active
/did -ra $dname 1 $replace($did(1), <chan>, %bgchan)
; set colors
/did -a $dname 10 0 - White
/did -a $dname 10 1 - Black
/did -a $dname 10 2 - Dark Blue
/did -a $dname 10 3 - Dark Green
/did -a $dname 10 4 - Red
/did -a $dname 10 5 - Dark Red
/did -a $dname 10 6 - Violet
/did -a $dname 10 7 - Orange
/did -a $dname 10 8 - Yellow
/did -a $dname 10 9 - Light Green
/did -a $dname 10 10 - Cyan
/did -a $dname 10 11 - Teal
/did -a $dname 10 12 - Blue
/did -a $dname 10 13 - Pink
/did -a $dname 10 14 - Dark Gray
/did -a $dname 10 15 - Gray
if (%bgcolor. [ $+ [ %bgchan ] ] != $null) /did -c $dname 10 $calc(%bgcolor. [ $+ [ %bgchan ] ] + 1)
else /did -c $dname 10 1
}
on 1:DIALOG:bgcolor:SCLICK:20: {
/set %bgcolor. [ $+ [ %bgchan ] ] $calc($did(10).sel - 1)
/background -f %bgchan bg\ $+ %bgcolor. [ $+ [ $chan ] ] $+ .bmp
/unset %bgchan
}
on 1:DIALOG:bgcolor:CLOSE: {
/unset %bgchan
}
menu channel {
Change Background Color: /bgcolor
}
Also, here is the zip of all the colors. Make a folder in your mirc directory called "bg", and place 0.bmp~15.bmp in there. The script will do the rest. >:D

np, the mirc script itself can go anywhere in the remotes section (press alt+r). The only important location is that the bmp's go into the bg folder in your mirc directory. >:D

What did you do to get the error just change the background? I have it installed, and running it now--no such errors. infact, I installed it twice by accident, and the only thing that happened was I got a double list of colors >:F

i had the box to change colour, i chose the colour, clicked on set, and got that error. also when i tried to copy and paste the script, it saved as all one line, so i had to paste it line by line
