Wave 11 Live for Windows Live Messenger is coming soon.

its based on my old wave 11 skin. http://riangelo.deviantart.com/art/Wave-11...er-7-0-18869410

You are an absolute joke!

Wave 11 is not your skin, it was made by theunknown and I, Fizical (i've changed my name on neowin). You have completely ripped us off.

this is not about the mac skin, I'm more disappointed with your post on DA. You make no reference to the fact that theunknown and i put this together and you claim it as your own skin. you even said here "it is based on my old wave 11 skin". you mocked it up yes but you definitely didn't make it. Im sure I remember crediting you for your contribution of resources, you could have been decent enough to do the same rather than portray others work as your own. I don't think that is much to ask. this is all in reference to your DA msn 7 skin.

I don't see any credits to me in the wave 11 installer.

And neither in the Black ice skin description which i helped on.

But if it's really a problem for you I'll put your name in the description. :)

I was expecting the same in the wave 11 installer but i was wrong.

The original wave 11 was made by theunknown and if i remember correctly he had made this skin originally without any design or mock-up from you. The only way your design varied from publically available as the wave 11 leaked shots out of microsoft was the gradients which he later incorporated. Despite that, here is me crediting you for the design in a release thread:

http://forum.mess.be/index.php?showtopic=13253

Whatever went into the installer was not my doing as theunknown made all those but we usually tried to mention credits in release threads on forums. I still believe it is much worse to claim a skin made by others as your own work. I don't care about skinning anymore but i do find it cheeky when people do what you have done. releasing the exact same skin that we made under your own name and claiming it is yours is just plain cheeky and lazy.

I'm done with this topic now, i don't care if you change your DA post or anything and we don't need or want any credits if you make a new wave 11 skin off your own work completely. As i said i don't have a problem with this mac skin, it is the DA skin that bugs me.

can you please stop sending messages in private and on here... stop the duplicates please. use one method or the other.

sigh you just don't get it. in your original link to the wave 11 skin (not this one you have just produced) which has over 50,000 downloads you made no mention of theunknown, not a scrap. We did give you permission to post on DA but it would not have been without linking to our then functional site and crediting theunknown. we had a strict rule about linking to our site and we only allowed mess.be to host our file on their server.

Your first (earlier version of msn) wave 11 post on DA was credited, but when the update was released later on you made no mention of it. So i believe we would have checked your original posting of DA and see you had credited theunknown and left it at that, then you went and put the update on there but we never knew you had left off any credits.

as for the wave 11 idea, it was based off a public available design from microsoft, many people had thrown together mocks and so had we. i remember talking about this with the unknown because we were looking for skin ideas and we already had thought to make the wave 11 style skin and were taking steps towards that, including designing one, then your idea with the gradients came in through your mockup and we adapted to that. i had wanted to make the other leaked wave11 style skin before you popped up which is what i had been working on. it eventually became the wave 11 shiro version from memory as we tried to make sure it was different from wave 11 itself. it was something we had been working on before you came alone. but no doubt you gave a great contribution to it.

now lets drop it please and if you need to continue this then pm is probably more appropriate.

      Glad these prices are starting to come down, but that is still crazy. I bought the 2TB 9100 Pro (slightly more expensive version with PCIe 5.0) last year for $240.

      The 2TB Samsung 990 PRO NVMe SSD hits lowest price in over three months by Sayan Sen Yesterday, we covered a really good deal wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe PCIe Gen4 SSD for a low price of just $400 with a special discount coupon. That's just $100 per TB, making it a very good offer during these hard times. The deal is still live, so you can check it out in its dedicated article here if you do not want to miss out. Meanwhile, if you don't have that kind of budget but still wish to buy an SSD for a good price, the 2TB variant of the TeamGroup SSD at $280 its lowest price in over three months. Meanwhile, those seeking 2TB but faster performance can check out Samsung's 990 PRO, which has hit the lowest price also in the last quarter or so, as it's on sale for $370 (purchase links under the specs table down below). Thus, you want a faster drive, get the 990 Pro, or you want more capacity, grab the TeamGroup 4TB linked in the first para. The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $500. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The tech specs are given below: Specification TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 2TB Samsung 990 PRO 2TB Interface PCIe 4.0 x4, NVMe 1.4 PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 Form Factor M.2 2280 M.2 2280 Controller InnoGrit Controller Samsung In-house Controller NAND Flash 3D TLC 3D TLC DRAM Cache None (HMB supported) 2GB LPDDR4 Sequential Read (Max) 5,000 MB/s 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write (Max) 4,500 MB/s 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4K) Up to 600,000 IOPS Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4K) Up to 700,000 IOPS Up to 1,550,000 IOPS TBW (Endurance) 1,300 TBW 1,200 TBW MTBF 3,000,000 hours 1,500,000 hours Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C 0°C to 70°C Storage Temperature -40°C to 85°C -40°C to 85°C Shock Resistance 1,500G / 0.5ms 1,500G / 0.5ms Heatsink Patented Graphene Heat Spreader No Get them at the links below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) TEAMGROUP T-Force G50 2TB SSD (TM8FFE002T0C129): $279.99 (Sold by TeamGroup, Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

      And here goes the "Won't someone think of the children" brigade. Get stuffed mate. This has NOTHING to do with making the internet safe. It's about tracking adults, spying on your online activity, and sending the boys around when they don't like something you post. Also, again, parliament have voted TWICE against this, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. THAT is anti-democratic bullsh**. They will use this law to track you, they will use this law to control you, and they will use this law to punish you if they don't like what you do, even if it's legal. And your data? Say bye bye to that. It'll be on the darkweb in weeks. I'm not some rando online. I've been an IT professional for 40 years, many of it in security. I know exactly what this means and what will happen to your data. I do not consent and I will not comply.
