Chat Channel colors

I'm wondering how you apply the chat channel colors that became available with GR? I see that on a new Praetorian character I create that chat channels have special coloring applied to them. I'd like to take that effect and apply it back to all my other characters with the "old" style channels. I went through the options but didn't see how to do this anywhere. Can someone give me a tip on how to apply these changes to existing characters?

If you're talking about the colors in the chat window there are three color customizations:

1. Turn on colored names. Go to Menu > Options > General Tab > Chat Window Section > Individual Name Colors: turn on.

2. Global channel colors. Left click on the name of a player-made global channel in the chat window and chose set color. A color choice window will pop up. Set hue for top and bottom of the text and it's intensity. {Note: the default channels such as Help, Arena, Request, Broadcast, etc..., can not be re-colored.}

3. Color of window borders: Go to Menu > Options > Graphics Tab > User Interface Options > set color.

When done go into the Menu > Options and look for the buttons to save the chat and window options and click. Once saved, if the settings changed or on a new toon, you can click on load options to bring back the saved settings.
