8.1 animated start screen?

Is it just me or does the animated start screen not work for you guys? The dragons tail should be moving if you choose that background, right?

Ooh we have animated start screens now? How did I not know this lol

 

[slickxsparkie]

Ahh nevermind! I had put my settings on "best performance" so it didn't have any of those nice visual effects lol

Yeah! Well forget that, where's the "messenger" app? When people message from FB. I saw a message pop up on notifications, but then I can't find the app

I thought messenger was removed in 8.1 update?
Do you have the new Facebook app downloaded and installed on your PC? Is it possible that is where the popup notification came from?

The messenger app was removed. It was a placeholder app until the fb app was released for 8.1, just how Facebook and Flickr integration in the photos is not there in 8.1. It was put in 8.0 as a stop gap until the apps were released. I really like the fb app and it works really well for the chat. I used it today to speak with my brother who is recovering from surgery in the UK.
