I found some good explanation and detail outline of the feature that build in the new WLM2009.

follwoing are the links... it's Windows Live developer-team's blog
http://windowslivewire.spaces.live.com/Blo...!7087.entry
http://messengersays.spaces.live.com/defau...x?wa=wsignin1.0

The sites / blog inside have a video demostration of the visual features.
For the Windows Live Messenger top-theme, which can change by using drag and drop a picture to there.

Furthermore, they is another thing you guys might realize.
In v8.5, we change the theme color to black then our conversation box will turn black as well.
But in this version 2009, even we changed the main theme ~ our conversation box are not changing.

Actually this is not a bug!!! This is a new feature.
Why not changing? because the conversation box shown the contact's theme instead of our own.

Let said i'm using "baby" theme and my friend Ken using "mummy" theme!
The time i chat with him, the conversation box shown HIS "mummy" theme to me.
I feel this multimedia-interaction is very interesting~

Another thing we can see there, "Favorite" and "Group"
According to what they said, v8.5's group is now say to be "categorizes"~
What the use of group in 2009 is an active conversation box, let said i created a group call "exam" then invite my classmate (they have to accept).
While someone come online, it will automatically got into the group-chat!! You know this is so much convenient in discussing stuff O_o


I like this version man! I'm just too excited to share this information!!!! XD

i'm not sure if anyone notice it.. or if is just happening to me..
when i wanted to invite someone to join an existing conversation.. normally i can just drag and drop it to the conversation window.. but i cant do it anymore in wlm9..

H@ck for this latest version of Window live 2009.. Allow polygamy (Multiple MSN) ...The more the merrier...

Praise be to God. A-Patch is a lightweight program designed to enhance your Windows Live Messenger experience. It does this by giving you a multitude of options, over 80, which allow you to customize the look and feel of Windows Live Messenger, even change some functions.

Some of the options include the ability to remove the big advertisement located on the contact list. Another option would be to disable the nudge delay timer, allowing you to send consecutive nudges without having to wait a few seconds in between. Other useful options include removing buttons such as "Activities", "Windows Live Today", and dozens of others buttons, multi-msn, show idle status of other users, and so on.

A-Patch has over 80 options for you to play with which might seem a bit daunting for new users, which is exactly why it comes with a built-in preview window. Basically, you can preview the changes of nearly every option before actually applying it, it really couldn't be easier.

Download link:

I'm not sure is the too many bugs or not. What i like about the Beta version is the Live Mail Beta. We can handle e-mail faster and systematically. I like its graphic too. Everybody hav its own opinion.

Conversation


Can someone tell me where is the send button ?????

usually, to send messages don't you just press Enter?

Or do you want to send files? If that so, just click the right-most icon, select File and pick Send a single file.

I was fascinated with its GUI, I'd downloaded the installation file of 134MB, but i cant install it, i get this kind of silly mistake:

And look at this, I am using XP as well...


...what happened?

Try update 2 SP3 n c.

Thanks for the A-Patch.

Apatch itself got spyware of not? how do you guys know its not harmful to our windows?

but it seems support SP 2 wor ... sigh ...

Although this latest version is cool.

It still ain't compatible with messenger live Plus!

I'm still not changing

Currently using WLM beta 9 later version.

And miss my Wall.E theme

The public installation have some other softwares to install right?
Just untick all of it except WLM.
Maybe that's where the problem occurs.

If not try clearing ALL traces of the previous WLM you've installed.

I got 1 problem here la. My acer 6920G webcam n microphone is not working wif the messenger la. When i wanna do voice call the thing write a soundcard is not detected and when wan video call it write make sure your webcame is not used by other application.

check your process.

open your webcam without any apps 1st, then locate task manager,
right click the webcam and then click "go to process" . Make sure you recognise the process name.
Then when you open WLM with webcam try looking at the process again.If there's irresponsible process running, end it. Then try again until the problem stops.

Other problems, in the options menu, try to use default soundcard. If that also do not work, then use the external one .

3rd, go to control panel, then click 'speech'
You can test if the mic is working there. If not, then you're WLM might be the problem maker.


Thats all lar.. XD



Extra info..Try changing your country =.=". Dunno it may work.

IE, remove all trace of the previous installed WLM.
