Hi all. Sorry if this seems stupid, but can Plus! support this version of WLM 9 yet?

Nope not yet

You have the intellect comparable to that of a rock. Be proud.

Yeah, now THAT would be interesting to see. As for myself, I have no need to upgrade to test out the new stuff, especially if I don't have Plus or StuffPlug. I stayed with 8.1 for the longest time, because Willz hadn't ported Ev0 yet and Stuffplug didn't exist. Even after they were though, I didn't upgrade until MS started putting out their nag screens to update. If it wasn't for scripts in Plus, I'd probably still be using something in the 7.x range.

I'll be using 8.5 for a long time yet. Why fix something that isn't broken?

I cannot hear you. There is a banana in my ear.

It's not about using something fixed, but about graphics. WLM9 is quite amazing on that side. Definitely something Vista users have been waiting since Vista itself first came out.

it might be great for people using Vista but people using XP still it wont make a difference whether they stick with 8.5 or not

I spent the last 7 years updating Plus! to make it work on newer versions of Messenger and onething I learnt is that there's always a way, you just have to spend some time on the probem.

Right now I'm having fun adding multiple-location data into Plus!, I'll check the skins out later. There's really no need to panic though

He always manages to come back with the most level headed and great answers

Well done Patchou, Good luck with the updates and what-not

...there used to be a signature here

Uh well actually, WPF is part of .NET 3 and is available for Windows XP SP2+ - I am running this beta on some of my machines and I have to say it looks pretty sweet.

I am kinda relaxed after Patchou confirmed he will do his best to solve the problem.

What is that multiple location data he talked about?

On WLM9 you can sign in into the same account from multiple accounts.

I guess he was talking about that
