i thought it would base it on the new images of WLM 9.0.

My first skin based on WLM 9.0

Completed mostly the contact list (apart from the fonts)

Looks quite nice - abit scratchy but with some effort could be made into a good skin, keep it up

All you've managed to do is copy 3 images, and you've not even got that right8-)

Still, good luck with the convo window ;p

Blue to white gradient, grab the vapor image from wlm 9's msgvsta. Done. Though maybe theres a bit more to the white glow effect. Still its not too hard to remake. Looks like there was a purpose to those files after all.

And yeah good luck in the chat window :P
