ColorfulChat allows you to send colored chat messages in SMP!
To use it, simply send a chat message as normal, and you will see a new menu with a bunch of colored boxes. Simply click the color that you want and you will see your messaged recolored as that color as you type.
You can click the small "rnd" text in the bottom right corner to send random characters (the ones seen in the Minecraft end-game text).
You can minimize/maximize the Color Selection Menu.
NOTE: When you send a colored message on a 1.1 Vanilla server, it will send the '�' character before each colored word. This shouldn't happen on Bukkit servers, but either way you will still see '�' in the chat box while you are typing.
It is a client mod. Now anyone can send colored chat messages on 1.1 servers, however I do not advise it depending on the rules of server, as you may be banned.
You need to setup the German keyboard on your computer:
Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Change keyboard or other input methods -> Change Keyboards -> Add -> German (Germany) -> Keyboard -> and tick the German box.
Next, make sure the current keyboard is the German one, (should show EN on the bottom right corner of the task bar; just click it and switch it to DE for German) and join a Minecraft server.
Once you are in game, start to send a chat message, and press ALT + SHIFT + 3 and you should see the '§' character in the chat message box. Simply type a Minecraft Chat Color Code after that then the message you want to color.

Yes, I will add the option to "lock the color" in the next version, as well as some other features like random rainbow text.
So other people can see my color without them having the mod ?
Yes, anyone can see the colored messages and random characters without having the mod. It works on most servers, except those which have certain chat plugins.

Click the "rnd" text and begin typing. Everything you type will be converted into the random changing text. You can also color the random characters by clicking a color first then "rnd".
This particular technique doesn't work on signs. It shows the colored text in the sign edit GUI but when you try to place the sign and send the packet the colored text on the sign is replaced by "!?".

rnd just appears as blank spaces for me.
