i wish my skins will work

There's quite a few in the making, once WLM is out we'll see more getting released.

That just means we're closer to MSG Plus! Live! :D Can't wait

Anyone wondering what our beta test "prize" is? :s

It's good, trust me :yes:

Mind explaining how Yahoo! users will reply to the WLM users?

;)

The logic in people's messages here is exonerating. :p

You can, in the contact list you can click the green double sided arrows and choose show details.

But the display picture is huge! It's not how it use to be in 7.5, I know many who hate this in the current build of wlm8. I hope this changes but I doubt it.

Also about the Yahoo being implemented into MSN, it's not likely to be in 8.0 if its going to be released next week, more like 8.1/8.5 which ever route they take on that. IF it does get released with Yahoo next week the developers won't be sleeping till then.. lol

There's a lot of issues with Yahoo implemented into MSN right now apprently. Some issues are, people are on msn and on away but appear online to yahoo messenger users AND another one is able to exchange text messages only, no files (so no Sharing Folders either), no Winks, no audio/video, etc. This is mentioned on mess.be

I just tried WLM8 in Vista... now I see what you meant by that. That's a feature I liked in 7.5 (not considering half the time I'd have to manually click on everyone's contact card to force the DPs to load).

Stuff like this makes me kinda wonder whom the Messenger team really listens to. Which smart ass came up with the idea of winks and paid packs anyway?

That's good news :D . But it still limited to text messages as there are no audio/video capabilities between WLM and Yahoo! Messenger :( . Oh well, on to the next version :cool: .

Actually, I'm fine without Messenger Plus! however I hope Apatch will be out as soon as possible, I hate those stooooopid ads on the contact window. Talk about bloat-ware.

Err because I am too use to the Tabbed Conversation that comes with MSNplus .. that's why :yes:

It won't, I submitted it as a bug and it was closed as by design sadly.

This date isn't accurate.

Shh, everyone's eye is off the ball :yes:

Oh yeah. I forgot about that. They asked us to update our shipping address.

The prize was the winks...I dont think its anything else...

My guess is a USB phone to use with the pc2phone feature. Only a guess though.

haha....Oh god thanks for the laugh...

I think people abused too much with the Logitech webcam thing and now we're only getting winks and crap.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By SystemX2 · Posted

      Thanks to some of the other recent Windows improvements, I'm optimistic about this one. My quick wishlist would be: perf like the older menu, merge both menus or at the very least, the older menu should be a flyout, not a simulated click to the old menu, and lastly, a customization window to let users move items from one menu to another, so I could bring Send To back to the main menu, and the OneDrive settings to the older.
    • This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE

      This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
