I also don't use skins, they just seem to have lost that edge that used to attract me (I was really into them when MSN Messenger was popular). All I use is a patch to remove unwanted features from the design of the program. That patch used to be A-Patch, but this week I have used Mess Patch, and I think I prefer it.
I've been using A-Patch for a while now, and I've missed the huge update Mess Patch experienced. It now contains a variety of new features, and some of them are very interesting and unique. One thing that caught my eye was the Translucent Dashboard feature, which basically gives the dark top of Windows Live Messenger a new clean look (see image at the bottom of this post).
I can still change all my favourite options (with one or two exceptions) and there is even a setting to bring back an old feature MSN Messenger used to have: Thumbed display pictures on the contact list! That feature was H-O-T, I remember it received a lot of attention when it was first integrated, in fact I still don't know why it was removed.
I suggest giving Mess Patch a go, it has become so much sleeker and more customisable recently, and it now beats A-Patch in my view.
