Mili is pleased to announce a new forum instant messenger service. All members now have the ability to chat privately with other forum members...in the same manner as one would use MSN Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, etc.
Here's how:
Click the AIM icon located in the upper right of the forum homepage - it's in the box with the little "open buddy list" and the "view new posts" squares. A messenger window will open, and the names of other members using the forum messenger will be displayed . You have the option of signing in to the messenger anytime you logged in to Mili's forum....your username will be displayed, and you will be available for contact. Just leave the messenger window open as you browse about the forum. You may close the window at any time, which removes your name from the contact list.
To contact a member, click their username, a separate window will open, allowing you a secure, private, one-on-one chat with that member. There are numerous text, color, and smilie options available within this window.
NOTE: If you are currently running a pop-up blocker program, messenger will NOT function. Disable your blocker to enjoy this service.
Have fun!
