I dont like the small icons for each user. I liked the big ones.

Look on the right side of the contacts screen. There are a set of green up-down arrows ("Manage Contacts"). Then select "Show Details". Volia!

Next thing. i dont like the way the contact list is actually set up. I just use standard sorting- online/offline.

In MSN 7.5 with Plus, once you customised one users name, all of the contacts were listed in order of their email address, but were displayed by either their display name or the custom name you give them.

In the same menu, select "Sort by Status".

Use the word wheel located to the left of the arrows. It looks up EVERYTHING about the contact: email adress, personal message, display name, etc..

And in WLM, you can have up to 600 contacts.



EDIT: This should be posted under MSN Messenger/ Windows Messenger. This has nothing to do with Messenger Plus! whatsoever.
