I'm confused about deluxe d/p. In the d/p panel thing I can see all the regular pics but none under the deluxe section. I clicked change d/p like someone posted but I see nothing to do with deluxe ones.

Err... shouldn't you post a source to prove they "will" be animated, since their name says "deluxe", not "animated"?

I did not say they were not animated! I said they wont be the thing that you think it will be. And I'm not negative, I'm stating a fact. And for more details see the link that I posted in my previous post (I suggest you to read it and follow the links and references given there; I'm not going to repeat everything here what has been said months ago in dedicated threads).

OK but how do you know they arnt the thing im thinking they're gonna be? I belive your post on the threads was that MSN Server system couldnt do animated DPs (correct me if im wrong...) If thats the case then MSN could changed the system a bit you know. Like they did for the non grouped contacts in our contact lists.

I noticed lvback.gif doesn't work anymore.

it's because you've installed some hack that modified msn messenger 7. I installed the mess.be games pack thing and the winks wouldn't work. I then uninstalled it and they work fine now.

DPs ARE animated Gifs, they only loop once. Send a GIF over the protocol and it will show it, but it DOESNT animate.. Yet. I think that either the support hasnt been finished yet or de MSN Object should be changed somehow in order to make it animate.

Animated GIFs are also used for animated emoticons (They work!). If you add one itll show up crap to you, but the other contact sees it animated. Can also easily be done using the protocol, just send a GIF instead of a PNG.

Winks can be exploited -- The code in the Flash files is unprotected, anyone with a bit knowledge can run any actionscripting on your PC as they like. Someone made a patch that disables every P2P crap using memory, but mind you, that also disables DP/s and everything. I suggest you use a Hex Editor and simply change the GUID's of the INVITEs used for transferring Winks (So Messenger will decline them as it does not know what it is).

MSGR7 has a lot of bugs, but overall its a very nice beta. Too bad some stuff hasnt been finished yet. But oh well, can't have everythiing now, can we

I think that the beta they are gonna release is going to be called msn messenger 6.8 or msn messenger 7.0 without the beta and then call the one that is going to relaesed in 2005 7.2 or 7.<something> cause they told me that they don't release public beta's @ least that's what i heard!!
