Meebo Got a New Design

June 21, 2008 by JoshB  

Those of you that read the Blog at meebo or use the Meebo service - you would know that meebo just got a fresh new design for the meebo inside interface.

As meebo stated in their blog post,

  • the background has been darkened to improve console and link readability.
  • the new chrome uses fewer colors for faster loading (a section of the title-bar has 4 colors only).
  • the new minimize, maximize, and close buttons are more streamlined so they don’t have too much that “click-me-now” feeling.
  • the background, buttons and chrome colors all come from the same family of blues.
  • icons have been reworked to use a consistent palette, so that no icon is more prominent than others.
  • buttons have been updated to match the buttons introduced in the website redesign of a couple months ago.
  • last but not least, new color schemes have been added: aqua, brown, carbon, red.

The day I saw this in my Preferences on Meebo Beta, It put a smile on my face! Why? Well to me, having the meebo interface how I want it to display is one of the Best Things that you can do! :)

For those that don’t like the flat skins.. There still are some of the Classic Skins on Meebo in your Preferences.

PS: David says that a new onyx design (v2) will be out in the near future - Stay Tuned to the Meebo Blog!
