i can see it being annoying. with my msn having around 400 - 500 contacts and msn displaying each profile picture... the scroll bar is going to go insane.

It's OK though i guess. my friend had the same beta for a while.

By George that's the most ugly piece of IMing software I've ever seen.

please bare in mind they are not very good pictures at all...

you can remove the favourites, whats new etc and change the picture size to large or non existent. I really dont see why people dont like it. i love it because its so customizable.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion. To elaborate on my last statement (and I've seen other various pictures of the new version), I dislike it because I think it looks awful. I'm not using a Mac, but why Can't Microsoft make a messenger client like that OSX one where the users are displayed in the upper-left corner?

I realy like this version of msn, I had it before but uninstalled it after a few weeks because msg plus didnt work with it and having to read through everyones HTML code was driving me mad!

One of the only things that I think is quite annoying is that you cant copy emaill addresses anymore, you used to be able to highlight peoples email addresses inside the convo but now you cant.

Also you cant open conversations with blocked people to unblock them anymore, if you try it opens a blank email page.

These are both things I will get used to though

It's confusing me, but it loosk good none-the-less. Did anyone else get told their hotmail has changed? Or has that been changed for ages? I rarely use my hotmail email :P

I might get that, I've been holding off upgrading from 8.1 cos there aren't any skins that give a similar appearance to the one I have now but this looks pretty similar:

I hate it, why does it have to force you to have a 'Groups' group in your contact list, it's ugly, messy and just plain weird.
