msn messenger 8 :S ????


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by Edna Mode on 01-08-2005 at 11:15 AM

there is no msn messenger 8


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by ayjay on 01-08-2005 at 11:18 AM

There was a big thing where everyone seemed to think that MSN 8 had been released as an Alpha and everyone posted screenshots etc. If you search the forums you'll probably find a few.

MSN 7 is still in BETA stage, i think they would still be working on fixing bugs and getting that released.
RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by R-Style on 01-08-2005 at 11:47 AM

It's a skin maybe you can't read.......


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by Edna Mode on 01-08-2005 at 11:47 AM

but i thought it has been released, you can get it from the msn sight


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by Ash_ on 01-08-2005 at 11:52 AM

yeh the BETA has been released.

theyll still be fixing bugs. alot of programs are released while there still in beta form, so bugs found by the public are reported and fixed for the final release. when they finish fixing bugs and think its as perfect as it can get they'll release it. then all people using MSN 6.x. will get a message when they try to sign in and say that a new version has been released.

If you look ajd, everyone started talking about how MSN Messenger 8 doesn't exist, that cropped up because people didn't bother to look into the fact that it's a skin:p...tbh, I think everyone knows now that version 8 doesn't exist...so do we really need to turn a thread about a skin into a thread explaining this, yet again...

Just to clear things up to those who don't understand, R-Style's offering a skin for MSN Messenger to make it look like version 8 might...It's not a bad skin, tbh, nice feel to it, but I'm not going to use it...

They probably knew it was a skin but thought that it was for MSN Messenger 8 :)

btw, what version of msn is it actually for?

RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by Eljay on 01-08-2005 at 01:21 PM

its for 7.0.0425 and i must say its a pretty nice looking skin (Y)
its actually called White MSN or Snow White MSN so as you can guess a lot of it is white :P


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by aNILEator on 01-08-2005 at 01:22 PM

got me wondering this aswell :S

is it for current MSN 7 BETA or 6.2 or what?


Thanks leejeffery


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by user35870 on 01-08-2005 at 01:25 PM

no preview of the skin?


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by Munty on 01-08-2005 at 03:30 PM

MSN Messenger 8.0 has not yet been released.

It is hoped to come out when all of the bugs and errors are fixed in MSN Messenger 7.0

Why do people like you continue to post that.  We already know that.  And its already been said in this thread, and besides, that has nothing to do with what the thread is talking about.  This kind of stuff drives me crazy..... n00bs.. huh....

RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by Flames on 01-08-2005 at 05:46 PM

It's a concept made by someone, not an official one (made by Microsoft) :dodgy:
There's no such thing as MSN Messenger 8.

RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by SSS on 01-08-2005 at 09:07 PM

When I installed this skin, all my tabs were gone. How do I get the tabs back?

Read the whole thread before posting,

Nice skin, but they hide some buttons (Handwritting, example) and I don't like the green butterflies.
RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by -dt- on 01-09-2005 at 04:36 AM

well for pictures of this skin

heres the contact window (which looks sweer)
[Image: contactlist.JPG]

and heres the chat window (which i dont really like the look of because most of the bottons dont show n stuff)

[Image: convo%20window.JPG]


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by ayjay on 01-09-2005 at 09:39 AM

(Y) I'm keeping it :)

Did you make it btw?

EDIT: After seeing the convo window, I've changed my mind about keeping it. Some things need cleaning up a lot and important things adding (especially in the convo window). Other than that, it looks pretty nice though.


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by M73A on 01-11-2005 at 06:20 PM

READ THE THREAD PEOPLE

THIS IS NOT ABOUT MSN MESSENGER 8,
WE ALL KNOW IT DOESN'T EXIST,
IT IS ABOUT A SKIN FOR MESSENGER 7 SHOWING HOW MESSENGER 8 MIGHT LOOK

RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by user27089 on 01-11-2005 at 09:46 PM

Go cookie!!!

It seems to be a nice skin, but as with all skin, there is definitely problems with it... especially in its alpha form :p... Its too plain at the moment, but I'm sure when its complete, it will be great ;)...


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by _Humphreys on 01-11-2005 at 09:54 PM

I don't like it [/lou] I think it's far too plain and too white.


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by kurtcobainuk on 01-12-2005 at 02:44 AM

Anyone want to modify this skin so that the nudge buttons etc come back to the eye?


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by haydos on 01-12-2005 at 09:17 AM

ok so where do i d/l msn 8.0???:P (just kiddin cookie)


i was wondering... in the white skin what is the little green tab in the convo window? (next 2 the emoticons tab)


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by Mak on 01-12-2005 at 09:25 AM

The skins ok but i like the 7.0 skin better:D and im wondering y cant people read the actual thread?? 30 people have to tell you before you figure it out...its so annyoing

RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by anonymousjon on 01-14-2005 at 02:36 PM

I thought that it meant he created the concept images of messneger, not the actual skin.


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by Tochjo on 01-14-2005 at 03:37 PM

I believe the skin is a "MSN Messenger concept art by GHL" ;)


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by aNILEator on 01-14-2005 at 04:21 PM

as far as i know that is just an image some guy modded in photoshop

NOT the creator of the skin.


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by JaymachRalTir on 01-15-2005 at 10:25 AM

The skin is by bface. Silly people not checking my big list to find out. :P


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by anonymousjon on 01-20-2005 at 05:24 PM

OK I have been having some problems over at the neowin forum and they seem to think that bface did not create the skin, they beleive it was someone called engima. Any dieas becuase this is causing problems?


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by JaymachRalTir on 01-20-2005 at 08:22 PM

*shrug* I found it here, which says bface made it. I choose not to question.


RE: MSN Messenger 8.0 Alpha skin by anonymousjon on 01-20-2005 at 11:29 PM

i would remove it :P neowin are beign really arsy about this, it was actually made by someone called enigma penguin, and he hasnt released it properly yet, he gave a few people a private beta, and someone leaked it.
