Well boys and girls. I come to you today bearing a brand new skin called fuse. Fuse is something I have been working on and off for the past few months. Messenger 9's layout is difficult to manipulate when it comes to taking down the extra space Microsoft added in.

With every skin I made, I learnt a bit more on how to get around some of these sizing restrictions to condense the space down. So after a lot of coding I was able to construct a skin which significantly brings down the minimum window size you can have when using Messenger.

Fuse features a highly compressed chat window and contact list design. It took a lot of experimentation and a mixture of code from different skins to be able to come to the final product (kinda how it got it's name, it's a fusion of all the layout compression I have done.)

Fuse features the standard options you guys have been used to in my skins recently and also uses some of the extra registry entries you see in Phunk'n as a little bonus. But yeah I recommend people check out this skin because it really does grow on you (like how it colorizes and if you combine it with the right scene it looks really nice).

Now for some screenshots:

I'll check it out tomorrow. Chances are its probably related to the DP border spacing compression I used. Just a note. For those that are experiencing an issue where your typing font randomly gets changed to white I have updated the skin to fix this minor issue. It happens pretty randomly so yeah.

There is no build change since it was a one line kinda thing. Just re-download the skin and you should be fine.

well donde Willz... goint to try it right now...

Hi one question. To use the tweaks i have to manually change one by one to see the effect? or they go to the skin options menu?

Nice, looks very sleek! You should make complete OS themes like this! lol j/k

Simple & Clean, loving it already. Thanks for the great work,
