@ Mattumanutd, why did you grey the script name out that you imported? :P You can still have WLM14 running and that script working. Just refer to mynetx's reply to [Release] WLMStatus 1.19.36 - Easy Web Display of your Messenger Status.

RE: Windows Live Messneger 9.0: New Beta
hey all
thats what i thought of WLM for now...

personal review for WLM 9 Beta
I've been testing it for 2 days and this is what i think of it...i hope my review helps a little for you all, thank you

the goods...
fresh new design
the "groups" feature
added History feature in Conversation window
new sounds and custom sounds possibility
Layout and "What's new" feature
added .gif for display pictures
signature sounds added
some nice scenes to choose from

the bads...
a problem with custom emoticons
the scenes and color themes don't apply to the conversation windows...to me there's a lack of coordination between the main window and conversation windows
crashing when viewing winks list
"send" button when writing text?????
the "contact sign in" and "new instant message" sounds are still old
the .gif display pictures can't be bigger than 200kb...doesn't leave alot of customizing capabilities...
clicking on display pictures and viewing contact card directly has been taken away
the possibility of draging a picture to the display picture box has been taken away...now we have to go all the way to browse...
the right-clicking feature on display pictures has been also taken down...
display picture size options are still "small" and "medium"...would be nice to have a "big" option...

conclusion...
nice evolution of WLM but it could be pushed a little further...
its really bad to have lost some quick access capabilities with the display picture...i hope its just because its a beta...

I just noticed that they "borrowed" a feature from my sexyskin :P

Clicking on your DP opens up the Change Display picture option, rather than your contact card

Woo :D

There isnt a way as far as im aware, although i have heard about that some people have got lucky, just wait for Patchou to release a compatible version of Plus :)

It does work, but only partially. Scripts are mostly running, including WLMStatus. Skins are working when replacing images, but not the UIFiles. Patchou is already working on a version with more compatibility ;)
