Default VRIM2: Beta 2

So, while I had originally intended for it to be an application-based thing, the fact that no one wanted to brown-nose me seems to mean I'm going to have to release the VRIM2 beta public. So... you can finally see this "oh so magical" thing I've been hyping for months.

First of all, here's the link: http://2.vrim.victoryroad.net/

I'm not going to go into the features yet, but there are some things to point out:
  • Ideally, VRIM2 will replace VRIM1 on May 1st (May Day!).
  • VRIM2 is still in active development. Things may break at any time, so use VRIM1 if needed.
  • VRIM2 requires a modern browser. Internet Explorer 9, Firefox 4, Google Chrome, and Opera 11 are all good contenders.

Comments, good or bad, are appreciated, but the following two things I don't want to hear:
  • I want themes! (They will make a return after the first stable release.)
  • I want the old version instead! (The layout is being ported to VRIM2. Ask somebody else if you want the link )

I like it a lot, Freeze. Whenever I changed my highlight (font?) color, I got a error message saying "The highlight, , dosen't exist" but the color was still changed so it seems minor for now. Again, great job

Well, if you didn't input a highlight, only a color, it'll show that (and vice-versa)

(But yeah, quite aware.)

Sleek and stylin'. A very fine upgrade if I do say so myself!

Damn, Freeze, that's sexy. I love the theme and layout there! I've only got one suggestion (And it applies to VRIM 1 as well):
When you've been on the chat for an hour or two during an active period you eventually start getting a backlog of a few thousand messages on your computer at once (Since VRIM, unlike VRC, doesn't remove a message when a new one is posted). This eventually causes my computer to become slow, and the chat slow as well, and it makes my posts fail to send more often (It says they have to be resent). It's easily resolved with a simple refresh, but the slowdown's annoying. Would you mind doing something about that please?

Other than that, VRIM 2 (and VRIM for that matter) is an awesome chat program, and you've done a great job on it, Freeze!
