Hello Rosie,
I guess this skin is not fully compatible with the latest Messenger 2009 version (build 8064), but if it does work, it supports all core Messenger features, including scenes and colors.

Not yet. I had to freeze scripting and skinning work for some weeks due to a different Messenger Plus! related project.

Removing the visible options to hide advertisements was the only way to have the skin added to the Official Database.

Skins that allow any of Messenger’s advertisements to be hidden will not be accepted. Keep in mind that maintaining the Messenger network is neither free nor cheap for Microsoft. Advertisements are their main source of revenue, just like they are for us.

I will update the PlusPatch skin in the next time. In the meantime you might want to have a look at A-Patch, providing similar options.

Sadly Plus!Patch 2.0.1 is not working for me with last version of MSN Live 2009, Try to use the 2.0.2 version which I grabbed from MSG Plus Skin site but the options to hide advertisement aren’t available anymore.

I miss Mess Patch.

“Hi! Option “remove advertisement” (both from contact list and chat window) doesn’t work with the latest update of Windows Live Messenger.”

Hi! Option “remove advertisement” (both from contact list and chat window) doesn’t work with the latest update of Windows Live Messenger.

Thanks in advance!

Lord Tinuviel: Please remember that this is only Version 2.0.1 Beta, that is, more options are going to be available when I found out how to make them possible. Also, please note that the next release of this skin will remove support for Windows Live Messenger 8.5, as Microsoft is going to force mandatory updating to 2009 in a time. This will be the time to add options which make sense only in 2009 anyways. Just be a little patient…
