yes that site is sweet. They offer a lot of tweaks and tricks to maxmizing your experience with messenger.

I say try 6.0 as it is a 100% improvement over the look and design of 5.0.

But it does use more resources than its predecessor..
but then most apps do as they offer much more..

I like the custom backgrounds, the new emoticons.. though I haven't seen the animated emoticons that were promised..
the game apps are cool as is the over all freshness of the messenger.

The popup messages are larger and stay on the screen longer than the previous version as well. And there is an option tab that you can click on the popups to change the pop message settings.



Overall it seems to function 100%, though I haven't tested it fully.
The new tabs are nice, and I hear you can create your own for your favorite websites... though it might require some knowledge of code creation.

I like it.. some will some won't. They are heading towards the metallic silver look of Windows Media Player and Longhorn.. shying away from the traditional dull greys.. and into the faded and multilayered look.


go for it! What do you have to lose?
