Windows Live Mail .eml, vintage icon

Submitted by formula_86 on February 3, 2010 to Aesthetics, Icons, Legacy

When you save an email message as an .eml draft file, the file type icon looks rather outdated.

Have it so that the icon used is exactly the same as Windows Vista's Windows Mail .eml file type icon.

Windows Live Writer should use the scenic ribbon

Submitted by Mephiles on September 12, 2009 to Aesthetics, Legacy, Usability

Windows Live Writer still uses the menu bar system that's over 20 years old.

Windows Live Writer is perfect for the scenic ribbon. Use it.

Little Messenger reminder guy is from long time ago...

Submitted by nyp on May 30, 2009 to Aesthetics, Icons, Legacy

Seriously, how old is this icon and why this haven't spotted by Microsoft is beyond me.

Update it with the new Messenger icon with the info bar too.

Time for the Live Messenger emoticons to be updated!

Submitted by alsiladka on March 18, 2009 to Aesthetics, Icons, Legacy

I don't think i need to explain anything. The Live Messenger icons have been the same from god knows which version. I think v6.

But the real problem is that they don't look at home with the new messenger UI.

Update and bring them to match the Messenger UI.
