Default MSN 8 - 02-28-2006, 06:55 PM

Soo MSN 8 beta has been officially released to the public (automatically updates)

What you think of it now?

I personally think its changed back alot to the previous version, it looks completely different. I liked the way you could change the colours on the previous version of the beta - which you cant do on this version. I do quite like the look of it though
I like how they've got rid of that damn annoying menu that opened up everytime u hovered over a contact. And now when you hover over it, you can actually see the email address.

Something that has been missing in EVERY msn version is the fact you cant manually change the name of a contact. So you have people with dodgy msn names that you cant identify unless u look at their email address. Now you can add a nickname for them.

I'm now waiting for a patch to get rid of the advertisements that have reappeared.

Discuss!
