This is a discussion topic for the Ore project, ServerListPlus. View the full project on Ore for downloads and more information.

ServerListPlus provides a simple but powerful configuration to customize the appearance of the server in the client’s server list. It can change almost all parts of the status ping and even allows you to customize it per player.

IMPORTANT NOTE: ServerListPlus is no longer receiving new features and is only updated to fix bugs or compatibility issues.

Description/Motd with RGB colors and gradients
Favicons (Server icons): Load from files, URLs, or use the player’s head for example
