Version: Yahoo Messenger 9.0.0.2162
"Very plain"
Pros: I logs in quicker than MSN messenger
Cons: There is no way to separate so that only your online contacts show in the list as MSN does, other than creating a list of all the people I know for a fact are always on.
Summary: There is not much selection as far as themes, colour choices, fonts, etc. The transfer of files, pictures, etc. is relatively quick, so that part is acceptable. Overall, I find the messenger to be quite plain. I would prefer more choices as to colours of my windows, including separate colours depending on who I am speaking to, and also themes to choose from for the main window. Finally, I would really prefer to not have to scroll through my entire list of contacts to see if someone is on-line or to send them a message. This can easily be remedied as other messenger programs have already figured out.
