O.P. Skins for WLM 9?
I"m so excited about the new msg plus! for 9 beta I've been using plus for quite a while now and I love it but I've never tried the skins feature in all the time that I've had it and I'm wondering what skins are there for the new WLM 9 Beta Wave 3 that work with the new compatible version of plus?

RE: Skins for WLM 9?
AFAIK at the moment, there are currently 0 working skins in the database for WLM 9.0. This could be because Plus! has only been compatible for 1 or 2 days, and it is up to the skin creators if they wish to make their skins compatible for a Beta version of WLM. The risk is that if they make them compatible, and the next version of the beta/stable changes WLM radically, the skins may not work anymore and it will be time wasted.

I wouldn't exactly go as far as calling some of them skins just yet :P some are more modifications than skins.

But yeah I wouldn't really expect many skins for 9 any time soon just because there is a lot more work involved so it will take a lot longer for them to get made.

Personally, I think I will probably wait for the final WLM release. I don't want my work lost just because Microsoft may remove the workaround that has been found for 9.0 skinning.

Same here, for now I will only improve my skins for WLM 8.5, they are ugly compared with others :P

Don't let that be your reason for stopping.  If Microsoft does remove the DUIDebug feature, Patchou will figure out how to use the UIB.  It's surprisingly simple.
