I'm pretty sure I didn't.

Yeah Darth's version allows players to shift colors on the fly vs Kay's is for groups or specific placed users in a config like the old simple chat colors - very different plugins.

It helps to look at code before jumping to conclusions. :3

For some reason this doesn't stay loaded on map change for CS:S.

Made a little HTML page for people to use on their servers if they want this public.

I forgot chat colors aren't TF2 only anymore.
I'll update the name to reflect that shortly.

Ask this about a lot of the new color plugins, does the hex value show before the message in player's console?

Is there a reason this keeps getting unloaded? Every few map changes it just stops working and when I check the plugins list it doesn't show as loaded.
