I'm currently using Version 2011 of Windows Live Messenger (Build 15.4...) and I was wondering if there was an easy way to set backgrounds to the main conversation window, as currently it's pretty much all white.

 

I know in previously versions there was a way to displaying a picture as the background to the conversation window to get rid of the white.

Update, I got fed up with the limited options included in 2011, I've downgraded to the 2009 version.

 

Did you know you can no longer block people if you are using Messenger 2011?
