Wait, now I am getting confused, those screenshots are stirring up something or other, and it could be a well thought joke or it is the real thing. First the new news, thanks again to the andyman, is that the design is featured in another Windows Live product, Windows Live ID which is the replacement for the.net passport. Where it shows the colour scheme used as well at the new blue buddy image.

So in conclusion, well kind of the new Windows Live Messenger design does seem real after all and following a design of other Windows Live products and to be honest I can't complain, I love the new concept and I hope it stays. Hopefully I will confirm this with a genuine leak of the new update. Just a quick post guys to clear up some things, have a nice day.
