Office Ribbon 1.0.0

             PNG

A Microsoft Office 2007 inspired skin that aims to recreate the ribbon interface and feel of Office 2007

I started this skin as I wanted a messenger with the smooth style of office 2007 with the ribbon interface toolbar.

The Skin Features:

  • WLM 8.5 and 9.0.1407 (beta 1) compatibility
  • Office Orb style menu button placement
  • A collapsible Office Ribbon style toolbar in chat and mobile chat windows
  • Many Customizable Options (Open Live Nine 1.1.0c)
  • All windows skinned appropriately

Minor Known Issues:
  • 'Large' Webcam border is pixelly
  • Because of new ribbon toolbar size, and some screen resolutions the webcam buttons beneath your display picture may be squashed/disappear altogether

You know what I mean :p

Anyway no flaming war please... I like your skin more than mine Nile :p

Yeah I started an office skin with an orb and wanted a realistic ribbon the same time as my vista skin first time around :P

Glad you like it though. If Microsoft server keep throwing hissie fits and buttons disappear (like they did last week with call and credit buttons) you get left with the ribbon button background

It's compatible with the standard messenger toolbar remove option is what I mean by that, access it by the orb menu :) a later update may see me adding custom menu thing like willz (reason it's not in this is it'd be like stealing code for the contest, something willz was not happy me doing, I'd also try to have a minimal ribbon mode :))
