Windows Live Messenger 8.0.0812.00，界面，图标等有所改变。
New in this version
Color Scheme Improvements
In the previous beta build, when you changed your color scheme to a saturated color, Messenger showed a lighter version of that color. In this beta refresh, when you choose a saturated color, we use that color. Messenger can also automatically choose a color scheme that compliments a selected background.
Conversation Window History
Want a clean, sleek conversation window history area? You can now choose to only show “Contact name says:” in the conversation window history when the speaker changes.
Improved Audio Platform
Check out all the configuration options for sounds associated with Messenger events.
Live Contacts
Want the most up-to-date phone number or street address for your instant messaging contacts? Subscribe to their contact information with Windows Live Contacts and you’ll always have their most recent published information in your address book.
Messenger Add-ins
Ever wanted to update Messenger functionality yourself? Now you can develop, post, and download add-ins (software that you add to Messenger that provides extra features or functionality) that will chat with your contacts when you’re not available, automatically update your display picture and personal message, and more.
Updated Windows Live Look and Feel
We gave you the first peek at the Windows Live look for Messenger in February. Since then, we’ve updated our status icons, the look of the main window and conversations windows, and more!
