how do i transform an 8.5 skin to fit the new messenger by Jess82 on 02-21-2010 at 11:07 AM

i had downloaded a skin that fits the 8.5 & with this new version of the messenger i am not able to use it. I tried going back to my 8.5 messenger but my computer makes me upgrade messenger in order to log in. I really love this skin & i want to use it in the new msn so if anyone knows how to do it can you help me out please. I didn't do the skin so i wouldn't know how to do a new one

Unfortuantely it isn't possible to juse transform an 8.5 skin to work with 2009.  Although the differences aren't too vast, it involves a LOT of re-coding to make an 8.5 skin work with 2009 and it isn't something you'd be able to do yourself.

There are a wide range of skins for WLM 2009, I suggest you try to find one that suits you.

What 8.5 skin were you using?
