There are a few ways to get to the chatbox settings: 1)Go here and click on Options 2)Go into your Settings --> Click on Shoutbox Settings. Most everything in here is self explanitory, but I want to bring your attention to this specific area: gg Shout Area Location - This is where you can set the actually text field where you type messages in chatbox. If set to Above Shouts, it will be like the older chatbox (As I have in the pictures above) Shoutbox Size - Changing this changes how big the actually chatbox is (see my above images). Leaving it as 0 is basically the same size as the older chatbox, but I found 256 to be a good number - as I spend alot of time in the chatbox As far is the lower section - I have no idea what this does, not sure how to use it! Maybe @XeNo can shed some light on this! 2 Edited February 1, 2015 by Labarr Link to comment

Those other chat tabs you can re-order given the number you wish them to be in. However, since the others are not enabled, there's no real point to them. Edit: Good job putting tag notifications to use! I honestly probably would not have seen this thread for another day or two otherwise. Haha. Edited February 1, 2015 by XeNo Link to comment

Everyone's shitty font and color choices made the chatbox look like a mess. Now how do I make it so new messages appear at the top? Edited February 4, 2015 by SilentGuns Link to comment

This is not possible(afaik) unless it can be changed behind the scenes Link to comment
