New chat room for Rick fans! When the RickChat window pops open, you'll need to log in as a GUEST or simply type your preferred nickname in the box where it says: Guest before clicking the Login button.




Click
RickChat button above to launch!


For tips/troubleshooting, see below.
 


Tips on the new RickChat:

You'll need to be running a
Java Plug In. This is preinstalled with most current browsers, such as IE 6.0, but you may need to turn it on under the Advanced Tab found in your Internet Options.


On a windows machine, go to your Control Panel


Either:


Start Control Panel

(or)

Start  Settings Control Panel


Then click Internet Options


Then click the Advanced Tab


Scroll down until you locate the Java settings and check all the boxes that apply to Java.


If cannot locate these settings or you do not have Java installed on your machine, it is available for free download from the manufacturer. Click here to download.
 

When you first click to launch the RickChat window, (see figure 1) you'll see a text box with the word "Guest". Type your nickname, screen name or preferred name in that box to replace the word "Guest". That will be the name displayed next to your chat messages.
 

If you have any problems with the RickChat window not fitting your monitor, try resetting your monitor resolution to 1024x768 (the minimum for most optimum web browsing) On windows, go to your Control Panel as above, click Display, the adjust your resolution under the Settings Tab. The RickChat window may also be adjusted slightly by resizing the window which frames the chat room with your mouse cursor. Just drag the window open a bit.

The little boxes/buttons under the area where you type your chat is where you can change your font colors, add emoticons, log out etc. etc.
