I would like to change my name in the Instant Messages.

Right now it shows:

if (item.name_str != "" && item.self) {
        name_tag.textContent = "b666m";
    }

and with this lines for IM:

Code:

if (item.name_str != "" && name_tag) {
        name_tag.innerHTML = item.name_str;
    }

if (item.name_str != "" && name_tag && item.self) {
        name_tag.innerHTML = "yourname";
    }

there should be a field called "nickname".
if you activate it, it should show what you've typed there. ^^

(i let show nicknames for sms and im. you can add a nickname to everybody you have in your contacts/phonebook)

i mean.. if you do so... you won't know who you're writing to anymore because all of them will have the same nickname?! o.O
