Some happy news and an update by Patchou on 04-12-2005 at 04:13 AM

Hey everyone,

It's been a month already since the release of version 3.50, MSN Messenger 7 has finally been released publicly and despite the fact that version 3.50 worked very well with it, I felt that a small update couldn't hurt anyone. This is also the occasion to announce some good news.

I'm extremely pleased to announce that more that 20 million emotion sounds have already been exchanged since the release of the last version! due to the incredibly high demand for this feature, new servers have been set-up and the feature is now expected to run smoothly and continuously, even during peak hours. Some web sites are now starting to offer Sound Packs for Messenger Plus! so if you like the feature, I highly recommend you visit them as you'll probably get what you want more easily than with the Random button (and if you're a webmaster, it's now your chance to create the ultimate Sound Pack web site to satisfy the millions of people who are searching for new sounds to send to their contacts :)).

The tutorials on msgplus.net were starting to get older and grew a beard. Thanks to MenthiX, no less than 40 brand new tutorials have been created for the latest version of Messenger Plus!. The tutorials touch every aspect of the software, from emotion sounds to preferences backup. Your ultimate guide to the ultimate Messenger plugin is now online and is waiting for you in the help section (so from now on, remember to link to the tutorials when people are asking questions about a feature on the forum).

The win a PSP & Laptop contest launched last month is also a big success: 3 PSP have already been won and 3 more are still available in addition to the world's best laptop. If you haven't done so already, download the latest version of Messenger Plus! and participate to the contest, anyone can be a winner and it doesn't cost a thing! also, remember that you get 2 extra chances every time one of your friends downloads Messenger Plus! so make sure you don't forget about anyone you know :).

All that being said, the main event of today is the release of Messenger Plus! 3.51. This version is mainly a maintenance release with several important bug fixes. One good improvement though is the addition of a new "attach mode" option. This option will help people who currently need to reinstall Messenger Plus! at every restart because of interfering software installed on their computer. Read the change log and download the new version now! have fun with the emotion sounds everybody :).

Patchou
