Jman9901	I think this is what you want... mob verb Say(T as text) if(!T)return if(mute == 0) view() << "[src.icon][usr] Says: [T]" else alert("You're muted!","Muted") return I've always wanted to know how to do that too, but I just now thought of it... I hope it works for you! :_

Lt. Pain	This is how you do it. mob verb Say(T as text) if(!T)return if(mute == 0) view()<<usr view() << "[src.icon][usr] Says: [T]" else alert("You're muted!","Muted") return

Kaiochao2536	Look up the \icon text macro. Actually I think I put this in Bug Reports somewhere, but it's not working for 409.974. Might just be me, but \icon isn't showing up.

Might just be me, but \icon isn't showing up. /icon works but my icon is big when i talk xD Guess il have to do text size to make the say verb a certain size, Maybe that shall fix it.

Well i changed my code to yours and it did not work.
I have got it working now.

All you have to do is place \icon in the say verb

And have:

client
    script = "<STYLE>BODY {background: black; color: white} BODYIMG.icon {width: 60px; height: 60px} IMG.icon {width: 16px; height: 16px}</STYLE>"

Anywere in the code file and the icon will be the right size for the say verb.

Jman9901	That's only half of the icon... Try making it like, a fourth... here's an example: {width: 8px; height: 8px} That'll make it small enough so it will probably fit in with the text.
