A new build of the Windows Live Messenger 8 beta came out today and I’ve had a tiny bit of trouble with it crashing when trying to close the main contact window, but that aside, it looks ok… ok, ok-ish.
I preferred the older look of MSN8 (for lack of typing out Windows Live Messenger 8 each time), it wasn’t that chromey look MSN6 & 7 had, but todays new build has brought it all back with a vengeance.
How many gradients does one small application need? Seriously, what was wrong with this look?
As you can see, I was chatting to Neil Turner as part of his mini review of the app, so you’re prolly best going over there, I’m just doing this as kind of a view from the other side…
And yes, I do have invites, and no, I’m not giving them away, so there…
