Yeah. I am not too crazy on the new appearance either.  They definitely need to add more themes.  They have better themes on Yahoo Mail and Gmail by Google.  I hope they add new themes soon.  On the plus side, I do like the address book and how simple and organized it is.

I also use the new version of Windows Live Messenger, the 2012 version, and I have problems with adding Yahoo contacts to my list.  I cannot do that anymore. I used to be able to with the Windows XP version.
