normally all skins are compatible with it. The ones from Windows X's Edition 6.2.0133 are.

Not entirely true. the "disappearing icon" bug occurs with skins that use transparency in the chat window. Windows X includes ISWAG and ClearMSN, both of which use transparency, and bot of which have problems displaying the icon.
I've had this problem intermittently, and if you want to keep the skin, your best chances are to use a background that has one solid color as much as possible. But that's no guarantee.

I read somewhere on this forum that ClearMSN is going to be fixed for that, but don't quote me on that, I'm not sure...

On a skins forum, BooGhost said that it would be a while before ClearMSN was compatible with 6.2 / Plus! 3. But he seems to be working on it
I've defaulted to Neowin MSN in the mean time

Does that Crystal MSN have to have a special windows, msn messenger, msg plus! version or anything special for it to work?
RE: Any skins compatible with plus? by Phrive on 05-28-2004 at 02:24 PM

RE: Any skins compatible with plus? by RebelSean on 05-28-2004 at 02:25 PM
Okay just was a thought before I "waste" my time downloading it 
RE: Any skins compatible with plus? by Phrive on 05-28-2004 at 02:28 PM
nah it will work and its a very nice skin once you've downloaded it u cudnt post the 'Ivback' from it becuace i really liek it and would liek to use it on my msn
RE: Any skins compatible with plus? by CookieRevised on 05-28-2004 at 03:05 PM
A skin is always MSN Messenger version depended. A skin made for 6.1.0211 will not work for 6.2.0133 and vice versa! So download the skin for the correct version...

If you maximize the window the plus icon is visible, but I don't maximize my windows usually
