To [Cairenn]: Night elves can't BE warlocks
<GM>[Cairenn] whispers: Yes, that is working as intended.
To [Cairenn]: Wait! That wasn't my question >

The above is completely 100% true. So I started looking for an easy way to differentiate whispers ;)

I found Elkano's Colored Whispers (http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=4519), but it had several problems. First, the colors changed over sessions. Second, most of the colors were unreadable.

So I created TasteTheNaimbow ^_^

TasteTheNaimbow is essentially Elkano's Colored Whispers with some very big changes.

What the addon does is color the name in ALL chat channels based on a cache of the person's name. This means that the color for the name will ALWAYS be the same.

Secondly, because I used an HSV formula to come up with a color, they are all bright, vibrant colors.

As of now, the addon has no options and should work with all chat channels. Please inform me if it does not.

A big thanks goes to Elkano for coming up with the idea in the first place and to everyone in #WoWI-Lounge for support!
