Well I will tell you what will be included in this tutorial.

•Sounds
•Graphics
•Themes

With sounds, mIRC supports quite a lot of formats, usually .wav and .mp3 are the main ones used.
I have 3 files

ChatKick.wav
ChatJoin.wav
ChatWhspr.wav

I Have This Code In My Script:

#sounds off
raw kick:*: { /splay ChatKick.wav }
raw join:*: { /splay Chatjoin.wav }
raw whisper:*: { /splay ChatWhsp.wav }
#sounds end

and in popups......

Sounds ( $+ $group(#sounds) $+ )
.Turn MSN Sounds Off:/disable #sounds | /echo -a MSN Chat Sounds Have Been Turned Off
.Turn MSN Sounds On:/enable #sounds | /echo -a MSN Chat Sounds Have Been Turned On
.Sounds >>
..ChatKick Sound:/splay Chatkick.wav
..Chat Join Sound:/splay ChatJoin.wav
..Chat Whisper Sound:/splay ChatWhsp.wav
-
So basically, to play sounds its just /splay FileName.FileType

also a good one is....

on *:START: { /splay StartedmIRC.wav }

with your music you want to play

Graphics are easy to load onto the status page :

open mIRC and you will see "Status" in the window, there is a box with red dashes all over it. click that :
go to :

Background
Select...
[Select your file]
Ok

and it is saved there, you cant keep them in chat windows because its a different window whenever you join a room.



Last of all : Themes

themes are basically other stuff people put in their connections.
like.....

raw kick:*: { echo -a $nick Has Just Kicked $knick Out Of $chan }

but with aways.......... specs hosts owners time reply's ctcp's. everything basically.

Ah but you can use colors too:

press ctrl+k in your mIRC screen, you get a menu of color codes by doing this you can make your script really good for instance as a starter message.....

on *:START: {
/echo -a 4Welcome 11To 9(Scripts Name)
}

you would see this when you start

[Red][Welcome] [Blue][To] [Green][(Scripts Name)

Color is an excellent mIRC feature, perfected.

so now you know how to use colors lets try our kick part of our theme..........

raw kick:*: { echo -a 8$nick 4Has Just Kicked 12$knick 4Out Of 9$chan }

so say someone got kicked you would see

[Yellow : $nick] [Red : Has Just Kicked] [Dark Blue : $knick] [Red : Out Of[ [Green : $chan]

Pretty cool eh?

This is sort of a short tutorial but its only to give you a few ideas, here are the main color codes :
(they all proceed with this block : ) to identify its a color


0 = white
1 = black
3 = dark green
4 = red
5 = brown
6 = purple
7 = orange
8 = yellow
9 = neon green
10 = teal
11 = neon blue
12 = dark blue
13 = light purple / pink
14 = dark grey
15 = light grey

[You can find all this out by Pressing ctrl+k in mIRC Windows
