I'm currently using the Rayshud textbox (that is, small and in the left upper corner) but I really dislike that extra ugly gray background without any text in it. I have tried editing the width of the BaseChat.res, and then the whole chat just disappears (really annoying, and before you ask, yes, I have done hud_reloadscheme). I just want to restore it to the original width of the default hud. Any help?
This is what my text box looks like:

thats not a short question at all
you could just delete the entire file

Go on a local server and do the following in console
sv_pausable 1; pause
Now your game is paused, you can open chat and when you hud_reloadscheme you'll see the changes made to BaseChat.res
To actually change the colors for the chatbox you need to edit 'resource/chatscheme.res', which isn't modified by rays, so you'd have to extract that file and modify it yourself.
The original Chat Window file can be found in /hl2/resource/ui/basechat.res or on the actual RaysHUD repo...
