Guys the concept was based on another concept, lots of original stuff, and all 3 of us playing around in photoshop.

My idea was that we let neowin users design names and logos for the messenger, and then we will pick one if we like it :)

SO COME ON AND POST SOME :D

Ok at the moment im dealing with a nasty bug...

it will only let u use hotmail.com and hotmail.co.uk accounts for some reason :'(

gonna have a fiddle and try and fix it, KoL was the first person to 'outside' BETA test, but he did get a stupidly buggy version :p

Thanks for all offers of hosting etc their great.

Please contact me if you want any technical answers as GHL is the designer.

Audio Visual Support? - maybe... it depends how well it goes when i get to that stage.

Thanks for comments, keep them coming!

habonator: excuse me? this entire graphical user interface was created from scratch. i did not 'steal' anything, please do not accuse me as i take it seriously. and what you were referring to were CONCEPTS by an artist whos obvious inspiration was similar to my own, the "ipod look".

Yeah sure. :rolleyes: Thats why the news posting providing this screenshots i've mentioned was removed by request of Microsoft on December 6th.

i want it :( so bad...

anyways i'll stop posting that as I havehad too many bears and I'm aware of that, but again, keep up the great work and hopefully the beta will appear soon for everyone :)

[edit] If you need help designing windows or something i'd be glad to help :D :yes:

I seriously do not want anything on it but msn... it completely messes my contact list up when i try to use a multi messenger program.

Keep it like this :)

/edit one thing that would be nice though, would be the possiblility for it to check more than one email account. :ninja:

any .net passport.

we are only going for the MSN protocol so no inter-messenger aim stuff etc, just to .net passports.

and we now know we can impliment display pics in the list and custom status's perfectly, its all coming together:D

and for those of you who have seen the new msn (released 10 mins ago) you will see that its UI is SERIOUSLY over cluttered now, they are trying to cram everything in one place which is what we are NOT doing.

and for the guy who is ranting about that concept art that was requested to be removed ages ago: my inspiration is ipod.

anyway as for MEM usage, its a bit of a whopper at the moment, i need to make the rendering a little better, and the code atm is messy as **** so lets hope it gets better. :)

Whilever you're using .NET, resource usage won't drop that much. NET has to be the worst platform ever for resource usage. I wrote a simple MP3 player in VB.NET and it used 26mb idle?! :wacko:

But it (GMessenger) does look nice. It's a shame it isn't being written in C or something though.

i agree i have the new msn and it is far to clutered.. i do like your design however atm the list looks like if i had 40 members online it was go on for about 40 pages;\ this may be something to consider also i did think that it might be a nice idea to do ofline msgs as you do in icq i believe. where your program stores it untill they come online and then they show up. just a thought

great work ghl the gui atm owns msn's

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
