Microsoft have once again tweaked the design of Windows Live Messenger, supposedly the last of the interface changes that are going to be made.

Those of you who liked the design of the status icons in Windows Live Messenger build 365 but disliked the fact that you were not able to see the exact status will be pleased to know that this version features the same style status icons as in 365, but has the 'old' style status indicators. Along with this most of the icons in the display list have been redone to give a 'glassy' look.

Also featured is a few new icons at the top of the contact list window - one showing a phone with a tape next to it (VoiceMail?), and a phone - presumably for PC-to-PC calls.

The conversation window has changed too, with the user's display name and email showing in the window title. Again, icons have been improved in the conversation window as in the contact list window. New 'No Dp' display pictures have been added too to replace the 'old' green buddy one from build 566.

I blame a developer .  And I'm not going to enlighten anyone about this cause it was soposed to be a secret . Oh, and this isn't the confirmed final look. Expect this UI to be tweaked even further as feedback is given (New initiative by Leah ).

That is a whole lot better looking than the build that is out now.

prefer this new look over the previous builds

I like it a lot too ... Hopefully this means the finished version will come out soon!... April is in a day and a half ... And the faster WLM is released.... The sooner that Plus! Live can be released... ...
