anyone know why MSN have yanked the UK profiles site by the way?

I wonder why they never thought of a "Classic Interface" for Windows 95! Is there actually a Windows 3.1 skin available somewhere? I do believe there is a Powertoy or something like that where you can make Windows ME or 2000 look like XP, though of course, I may be wrong. If you did a cus...

1280 x 960 because it's the highest possible on my monitor while still being the right shape. 1280 x 1024 is the stupidest shape ever.
