ps89 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Updated too. Thanks for the heads up. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lecter Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Quite like the new look, including the bigger contact pics, but it definitely requires Apatch to make it truly usable :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smigit Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 looks nice although I dont like how they dull the colour selection, it makes getting the msn window with a darker colour close to that you are actually selecting impossible. It looks alot better than the previous beta but. edit: to clarrify, I'm talking about the window colour that is customizable in msn 8. Picking a dark green results in a very washed out green, same with all the colours. Would be nice if you had some control over the colour saturation as a darker green would suit me better but its just not possible to do it the way it implements the theme in this beta.

autodefe Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 MUCH improved over the previous build. New toasters are rockin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mole001 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 MUCH happier with this build. I like that everything is back over the "normal" sides then from 0562. still the UI colour schemes still look a little dogey but a BIG improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manson_AAN Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Cool thanks for heads up also Messenger Plus works with it as well but not all features only small things such as boss protection. (version 3.61 or lower) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subfusion Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 This interface is way better than the first ugly bloated one, I'm glad WLM is improving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grunt Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 ya know, i think i actually liked the green icons. and the colour schemes are too light now. my background doesn't work as well and i've chosen #000000 as gui colour. its about as light as the alt cell colour in posts on here.

Ambroos Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Why is everybody making such a problem of installing? Just go to Live Ideas, and download it from there ;) Besides, has anyone noticed beta.msn.com ? (seems like microsoft is doing big beta things besides Vista, Office and messenger) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daedalus Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 The new buddy in avatar is fantastic. Really hope they apply it for status icons too! :) Agreed. I really like the design of this build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomHall Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I really like this new build, it looks great... But, I dont know if anyone else is having this problem - its with the 'What I'm Listening To' feature. It seems to be displaying only the title of a music track and not the artist AND title. This goes for all of my contacts... When you click on a contacts track it displays {0} - {1} under the 'Search Title'. Weird huh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyX Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Yup, nice interface, still bloated though. But nice UI :) Indeed the colorization looks less .. colorized than before :s it was pretty nice in the previous build. Black really did look black! And it was pretty damn cool too, even if I hate black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird huh I've no idea on WMP ones, but if you're using WinAMP and is having problems with it, try downloading the new gen_msn (for Live Messenger) from http://myplugins.info/ It seemed to fix my own, at least..
