The MSN Messenger for Mac sucks soooo bad!!!

After seeing what Msg Plus can do for Windows, I know it could do seriously amazing, wonderful things.

All my friends use MSN Messenger, and I am so tired of hearing them go, "Do you like my display pic?" "Wanna play a game?" "Why can't you see my super-amazing custom emoticon?" "Why can't you view my webcam?"

If Msg Plus can add half the features of MSN Messenger for Windows, I would literally vomit in joy.

But there is a second problem :)

[Quote=Patchou]The Macintosh platform does not have the technology (API) for an add-on like Messenger Plus!

aMSN, is an open-source MSN Messenger client that works on Windows, Linux and Mac. It features most of the features from MSN Messenger for Windows, including display pics, built in polygamy, all emoticons, custom emotes etc... I dont think winks and games exist on it though.

it's nice of you to want to help me but Ireally have no clue how to develop something for Mac. I'll have to learn someday but for now, sorry, the Windows version already keeps me busy all day long.

This is a random thought.....but if 5.0 brings a more advance API to it would Patchou consider doing it......


(I BTW am a Windows user and have touched very little on a Macc)
