I'd like to begin by thanking Patchou for his amazing efforts on this release

I find it odd though, that messenger plus live does not have such a handy feature. Or is it that i overlooked it in the settings?

In case you dont know what i'm talking about, previously while typing within a conversation window, a small window showing all emoticons would pop up when you type the close bracket symbol ( "(" ).

wasnt added in time, will b in next release tho. he is v. sorry

That was a quick reply, thanks. Glad to hear the next release will have it again.

cool, i was going in crisis when i spent like 2 h to search this option through the preferences heheh

hehe, same here

I downloaded off a direct link, didnt see the link to the changelog.

Anyways, as stated there, "You may notice that some previous features from Messenger Plus! 3 are missing. Some have simply been deprecated, others (like the emoticon panel) will be added back in a future update."

And for a moment there i was afraid that Patchou had forgotten about it completely

yes.. same here...

PLEASE ADD THEN EMOTICONS FUNCTION. THANKS.

Same here, I think that quick icon shortcut is really useful.  When is the new SP coming out? 

Also what happened to the "tab settings".  I want to be able to change the tab location to "side" or "top".  And I liked to be able to change the size of the tabs.  When I chat I like to keep my WLM window small so it doesn't take up too much space on my desktop.  But now the tabs are so big that they just disappear when I open 2 chat windows. 

Another missing feature is when you have mutiple tabs open and you click on that "left and right" arrow in the upper right corner to change the chat window.  Before, when you clicked on that it actually took you to the current chat with that user.  But now you actually had to click on the name of your chat partner to take yo to the chat.  It's a bit redundant to have to click on it twice.  Hope we can have this feature back.  THANKS!  I LOVE YOUR PROGRAM!
