Live Messenger Refresh Now Available

[AlexMagik]

i finally got it too.. :)

looks a lot faster than the previous (public) build.. and i like the blue more...

i like it :)

Note: i've 2 accounts with MSN, one is official tester, one is invitation... but both works with this new release... i wonder why ms doesn't go live directly with everybody...

Because obviously no one's leaked a copy to the A-patch creator, yet.

You're clearly clueless as your post is. He's on the beta but if anybody bothered to read any of the important posts in this thread I said he's offline currently and clearly not working on it. Please everybody stop crying like little immature 5 year olds and wait for him to make it -- it's not as if mess.be are going to bother making one for a few weeks and then it will have numerous bugs.

Oh and it's not like this hasn't already been leaked...you all act like it's so illegal but urm look at the past 20 messenger builds and they have all leaked even if they are v8 builds any stupid idiot can get on the beta now so yeah stop crying again about people "giving the build out" becuase it's never stopped leaks to date and you voicing your concerns over some idiot "leaking" it isn't actually going to stop them from doing it, but encourage them more.

Microsoft has asked that no one leak the current builds. If Neowin condones leaking the builds then Microsoft could cause problems with their host.Its happened before.

I'm not saying condone it at all -- I don't condone inept idiots leaking builds at all just makes them look as stupid and moronic as they are. I'm saying stop crying about it because that isn't going to stop it. Inept idiots have always leaked builds before and people crying on Neowin forums isn't going to stop it.

Pl. dont exchange links, its limited to original beta testers. Every other beta tester will get a link in few days. Have some patience.

Exchanging links is against MS EULA....

:no: :shiftyninja: I am invited by MS himself and i didnt get the email :shiftyninja:

Let me make this very clear, there is to be no sharing of links or suggesting where to find the build or requesting where to find it. I have just finished handing out 3 warnings. I have made it very clear from the get go that Neowin doesn't condone sharing links to a private beta and I will stick to my word.

It's actually nice now (with bg and good color), guess it's growing on me.

Woah i just found a awesome bug, the chat text is now not read only, you can select stuff and when you type with the keyboard it erases what you had selected!!!

Yeah, you can also select stuff and drag it with your mouse, and paste stuff in there. Also it lets you add one letter if you have the text cursor in there.

Anyway, am I the only one that thinks the UI looks ok? Choose a light color and it looks better.

The UI looks good to me from the screenshots I've seen. It doesn't look that much difference from 7.5. How much memory does the beta use? Is it more or less than 7.5?

did they fix the problem where your contacts cant see you online

Apatch Update:

APatch has been updated and is coming in a few minutes :)

Watch http://www.apatch.tk

[eminem213486]

am i really hte only one that noticed the damn MEDIA CENTER button ? its in the damn titlebar, i really confuses the user with vistas media center icon. wtf were they thinking?

its the first thing i noticed after install. i filed a report and they ask me for a screenshot. :no:

i actually like the new design, theres just a huge waste of space everywhere though, titlebar for example, it needs to be skinny. and we shold be able to have contact list backgrounds too. maybe then it wont look so fugly with colors clashing

the font colors dont change as you change UI colors... which is a big **** up...
