Hi, Im would like to start a poll on whether people would prefer the Windows Live Messenger pop up toast to apear on Msg Plus notifications or the messenger Plus toast. Well this is if it is possible to call the Windows Live Messenger pop up toast for these things anyway which I believe it is because from Screenshots of the next StuffPlug that I have seen they can call upon the Windows Live Messenger notification toast for one of there features.

Messenger Plus! Live Pop-up toast.. and I believe you meant POLL not pole.

Yes that is what I meant, Im tired. Edited it now

honestly I don't know the difference between them
I guess I have not paid much attention to them
could you post a screenshot please

i would prefer the MP!L ones becuase you can easily modify them to how you want

I believe Plus! should use Windows Live Messenger's own. I've brought up this issue in the past, and although it is possible, it contains limitations, something which Patchou cannot afford to make exceptions for due to many scripts using toasts.

Personally I like the Plus toasts because they are modifiable if Patchou would amend some things to do with the skinning of Plus!.  The thing I would like to see however is to add a pictures to the toasts like WLM has.  This is the only thing I believe is missing or needs ahearing to (along with the skinning functionality).

I am not interested in modifying those MP!L toast windows so I prefer WLM's toast windows. Also one of them prevent the other to be displayed when they must be displayed in the same time. It is a bit annoying. I prefer all notifications would pop-up on top of the other at the same time.

Creating genuine WLM toasts is possible and not extremely difficult, however, the Plus! toasts are better for Plus! because there is a lot more control over them, among other things..

Except for the fact that both kind of toasts dont appear together, why should it matter? they look pretty much the same, at least, they're supposed to. Using my own toasts allow me to do whatever I want in them, I don't plan on using Messenger's ones but I'm opened to hear what you have to say negative about the current ones (there's always room for improvement I guess ).
