I am temporarily using linux until I can get windows back. I want to make it as nice as possible because who knows how long I will be using Ubuntu?

Anyway I want to know how to change color theme like Windows Live messenger (if you can).

closest thing to changing color is to use a different skin or get chameleon plug in.

You can edit your settings.xml of the skin that you are using (it's better to do a copy of the skin, and modify that settings.xml) and find something like this:

[code]
   <General>
      <Colors>
         <balloonbackground>#daeafe</balloonbackground>
         <balloonborder>#2e8afe</balloonborder>
         <balloontext>#0000dd</balloontext>
         <menubackground>#cce6ff</menubackground>
         <menuforeground>#000000</menuforeground>
         <menuactivebackground>#318eff</menuactivebackground>
         <menuactiveforeground>#ffffff</menuactiveforeground>
      </Colors>
[code]

If you know hex codes colors, you won't have any problem to change it. If you don't know, try with a graphic editor, or try this link to know some codes:
