Sean B. Veteran Posted May 1, 2007 Veteran Share Posted May 1, 2007 (edited) Windows Live Messenger 8.0, 8.1, 8.5, and 9.0 ALPHA Here we go again, skins for Windows Live Messenger are starting to appear, some are good, and some are, well, bad. However I've been searching the web for a while and I've found a decent list. Remember there are not as many skins now as skinning Messenger has become a lot more difficult, nevertheless there is a good selection you can choose from. Enjoy!

argonite Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Awww, no 8.5 skins. Although I guess 8.5 has its own thing going for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean B. Veteran Posted September 12, 2007 Author Veteran Share Posted September 12, 2007 I'm using 8.5 and the majority of 8.1 skins work, I haven't had the chance to beta test them all. I'll let you know which ones work and which ones don't, I'll make a list. But Bluesky, Vista, and ev0 seem to all work :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
