RE: NEW SKIN
How about just changing the background of WLM?

You know the white background of your contacts list, well you can change that to something, to a picture of the Arsenal team (or even better.. the Chelsea FC team :cheesy:).

1) Find the image of your choice.

2) Go for pictures with white backgrounds or cut objects out of their backgrounds, because dark colors will conflict with the MSN Display Names on your contact list. Also avoid very large images (resize to around 200 pixels width and/or height if possible). Finally, when possible, make it a bit transparent (eg. 40% opacity in Photoshop).

3) Save the image it as lvback.gif with 256 colors, in your MSN Messenger program directory (usually C:\Program Files\MSN Messenger). Latest is C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Messenger

4) Sign out and in again (or switch tabs and then back to your contact list) and you'll see your fresh MSN Messenger background!

RE: NEW SKIN
I see you have been asking around other forums. Well, I know of this skin (well skins) of football teams. I'm just having trouble finding the website :P.

Darn, can't seem to find it :(. Try searching, I know where is a website (forgein language) out there.
