Google Talk new look-and-feel

Just several hours after the Windows Live Messenger face surgery, Google Talk did it too. The voice client version 1.0.0.91 is available here, “here” standing for a special URL that the official web site hasn’t still announced yet.

This last version introduces some avatar pictures into the spartan design layout. Users can put their own, if they do meet the 96×96 bitmap requirements ― the PNG format would have been a better choice.

The other improvements brings some new colors to the text conversation window. Users can now choose between several themes but if you want some nifty customizations, you could go on Customize Talk or Google Habla.
