code:
<ResGroup>
<Restrictions>
<MsgVersions>
<Version Major="8" Minor="5"/>
</MsgVersions>
<SkinOptions>
<OptionSet>
<Conditions>header = "Aurora Live Default"</Conditions>
</OptionSet>
</SkinOptions>
</Restrictions>
<Resources>
<Replace>
<Graphics>
<!-- NO UNAUTHORIZED COPY ALLOWED! -->
<Pictures>
<Picture Id="1652"><File>1652.png</File><Metadata><UMLeft>1</UMLeft></Metadata></Picture>
<Picture Id="20199"><File>1652.png</File><Metadata><UMLeft>1</UMLeft></Metadata></Picture>
</Pictures>   
</Graphics>
</Replace>           
</Resources>
</ResGroup>

This option, for example, loads only with 8.5.

code:
<ResGroup>
<Restrictions>
<MsgVersions>
<Version Major="9" Minor="0"/>
</MsgVersions>
<SkinOptions>
<OptionSet>
<Conditions>header = "Aurora Live Default"</Conditions>
</OptionSet>
</SkinOptions>
</Restrictions>
<Resources>
<Replace>
<Graphics>
<!-- NO UNAUTHORIZED COPY ALLOWED! -->
<Pictures>
<Picture Id="1652"><File>1652.png</File><Metadata><UMLeft>1</UMLeft></Metadata></Picture>
<Picture Id="20199"><File>1652.png</File><Metadata><UMLeft>1</UMLeft></Metadata></Picture>
</Pictures>   
</Graphics>
</Replace>           
</Resources>
</ResGroup>

This loads only with 9.0
code:
<ResGroup>
<Restrictions>
<MsgVersions>
<Version Major="8" Minor="5"/>
<Version Major="9" Minor="0"/>
</MsgVersions>
<SkinOptions>
<OptionSet>
<Conditions>header = "Aurora Live Default"</Conditions>
</OptionSet>
</SkinOptions>
</Restrictions>
<Resources>
<Replace>
<Graphics>
<!-- NO UNAUTHORIZED COPY ALLOWED! -->
<Pictures>
<Picture Id="1652"><File>1652.png</File><Metadata><UMLeft>1</UMLeft></Metadata></Picture>
<Picture Id="20199"><File>1652.png</File><Metadata><UMLeft>1</UMLeft></Metadata></Picture>
</Pictures>   
</Graphics>
</Replace>           
</Resources>
</ResGroup>

loads on both

RE: Options Messenger Versions
I highly suggest you narrow down that Msgres restriction on Messenger Versions, by the time of the next 9.0 beta you can almost guarantee all current 9.0 beta 1 skins will be broken somewhat, so if you narrow the restriction to the current build only that will be better.

I highly assume that the database will get a cleanse on beta 2 if skins get broken that are only restricted to 9.0 (rather than 9.0.1407 for example)

This is all as you are assuming that he means skinned parts, instead of skin options (like customization found in many skins)

Yes...this was a way I found to do that. but the options would still appear as well...but don1t know any better method
(used 9.0 only as example...I know that we always should use a build tag, for example.)
