The color scheme drop-down>
The status "On the phone" from the previous version was renamed to "In a call" due to the addition of Windows Live Call.
Nicknames of individual contacts can be customized to appear differently from what the contact has set.
Messages from contacts can now be time-stamped.
Windows Live Messenger has the ability to turn off prepending of contact names if the same person writes multiple messages. If the same contact writes more than one message, the contact name will be displayed for only the first message. However, if messages are timestamped, and the time changes, the contact's name will be displayed with the new time.
A color scheme can be chosen for the entire application, including the status window, and not just the conversation windows. A paint brush menu is situated below the personal message box in Windows Live Messenger, to facilitate choosing colors.
Microsoft Passport has been replaced with Windows Live ID.
Word wheel search within the contact list.
Beginning with version 8.1, one's display picture and personal message are stored on the server, so wherever one signs in, the display picture and message will still appear. However, all computers must have version 8.1 or later for the feature to work.
