[Suggestion] Change Plus! toasts to look like WLM 9.0 toasts by Th3rmal on 01-13-2009 at 09:51 AM

Topic says it all.

I believe it would be a nice addition to change the default Plus! toasts to the same type as the new WLM 9.0 toasts.

I know that alot of people use 8.5 still, which is why i suggest that when Plus! installs, it checks to see which version of messenger is installed, and changes the directory of the toast images accordingly.

Opinions?

I'm pretty sure they're like that on purpose, so you know which is which. ;)

And copying the WLM toast is, well.. copying.. or stealing in a sense, which isn't good.

It's better with its own toast and design, don't you think? :)


Nevermind, you wasn't saying have them exactly the same, just change the design to fit with WLM2009. I need to read more carefully ;).

They were like that to be 8.5-like =)
Makes sense a new toast design... but skins can do that =P Just don't know if they can change trasparency of the toast...

I dont think transparency is that important, just that the overall look of the new toasts fit in nicely with the new WLM

I think the Plus interface needs a bit of a facelift, not a huge one, just to change the windows background to WLM9 style and the toasts have a fade+scroll effect like the native ones
