Hi,
I have messenger live beta 9 only a few of my skins work with it such as beaver and steve and smile a mile...is there a place to get more or am I just going to have to wait till more are made?
Thanks,
Sue

Not alot of people are making for it because 9.0 is a beta, and come Final they'd have to change tons of stuff, where as 8.5 won't be changed as it's a final .

Nagamasa's Skins are compatible with 9.

The fact is that it is not so easy to make skins for BETAs since the resoources change and the skins became non-compatible. So, skinners rarely attempt to create a skin for BETAs.

and the resources for rle's are different too
and the code layout also

Windows Live Messenger 9 Beta is also currently in private beta so not everyone has access to it unless they got it via a site that is distributing it against the rules of the beta, so not everyone who is a good skinner or with some general knowledge has the beta to be able to skin. Windows Live Messenger 9 Beta skins are also not being placed into the official database so right not it would be pointless.

There's not much point in using this beta if you're not an official tester anyway to be honest. I highly suggest everyone sticks to WLM8.1 or WLM8.5.
