Quick little edit to add background color to the ChatHUD

Text in the chat HUD is VERY hard to read... so I whipped up this quick fix to give it a background (currently dark blue/purple) It's not exactly the best fix, but for the moment it does work.

ChatHUD Background

Installation:

Unzip the files and copy to the appropriate folders:

example\client\ui\
example\client\scripts\

Maybe you need to delete the .dso files for the .cs files that have been replaced? Just a guess.
