some typos on msgpluslive.net by andrey on 12-14-2007 at 08:18 PM

http://msgpluslive.net/skins/
"[...] Messenger Plus! skins don't patch Messenger but load the resources in memory, which makes your skins easy for people to use [...]"

http://msgpluslive.net/features/
"[...] this feature lets you lock Messenger with a simple shortcut (or Plus! menu command) and hide it in the system tray [...]"

http://msgpluslive.net/more/banners/
"[...] to make sure they always get the lastest version. [...]"


Not a typo, but still something which should be fixed: inaccurate information about tabbed chats feature on features page

It should be
"...Messenger Plus! skins don't patch Messenger, they load the resources into memory, making your skins easy for people to use..."
or some such

It's actually fine how it is, as long as there is a comma before "but"

I like the rewording of that, but punctuation is wrong for the same reason as the thread that's going in the translation forum at the moment. In this case, I would say a hyphen ("Messenger - they") would be best.

"Messenger changes it's own look" should use "its". Common enough confusion to make; I hope I don't have to explain it.

All fixed, thanks for reporting! The /skins/ typo fixes are not yet live, but will soon be (it's being worked on separately).
