I’m releasing my alpha version of SweetIM (build 1.1.0.100), freeing you to add original winks, emoticons, sound fx, audibles and more to MSN Messenger. Looking for feedbacks before beta.

Respect, ben

I disagree. I think it's the best IM client out there... This doesn't look good to me either though, looks like those stupid ads your always trying so hard to get rid of

Guys - Currently both sides need the application !

We're working on that. Most chances that we'll find a good solution that will enable the person with SweetIM to send most of the content to another person without SweetIM.

Agree about the smile, but what about sending sounds, special nudges, playing games ? (these are some of our future features...) .

I assume we will be able to solve that issue at lease for the emoticons, but I'm not sure yet what about things like games etc...

Just a short update here:

We're about to update SweetIM very soon (probably before weekend),

We will only update the menu and our content, which means that the users won't even need to download a new build.

The update will include new emoticons, winks, audibles, and sound effects...

We'll appreciate your input when update is out.

Regards,
Ben

Its a promising program, keep it spyware free, keep improving it in your own time and it will be ace.
