Hi,

I use hexchat for linux mint. Ive gotten my colors right for the most
part but my own written messages are almost same color as the
backround. How can I change that?

​

Thanks!

I haven't used Hexchat in a long time (using Adiirc because I found a
theme I absolutely love) but maybe you can try the same method that
mIRC and a few other clients use to apply colors to what you type ..

[This](https://dev.adiirc.com/boards/6/topics/839) one. Made a few
adjustments to colors but it's my favorite IRC theme that is in a non-
terminal based client.
