My vote is for #6.
But I will ask her to make a version where the blue is a bit lighter, I think the message box is a bit heavy.

Couple of things/answers:
1. I will ask the designer to make a template with icons instead of "reply, resend, conversation". It is easier to make a decision after we have seen what it looks like. 2. Tags will be entered using hashtags. This is the standard for all micromessaging services as far as I know, and I don't think we should try to push for a different one. 3. Tags will be displayed inline in the messages as links (like today). Displaying links on a seperate line takes up too much screen estate IMO. 4. The mockup only displays 4 messages, because it is only a mockup. There is no need for the designer to draw all messages. Once the design is up and running, the message page will show all 40 messages, and the "older newer" links removed as we currently don't support pagination.

More thoughts:

I agree with Dick that the tags for a message should probably be
displayed in the message somehow, if this is possible without
cluttering everything up.

Also, is the intention to only display 4 messages per page? I don't
think that's going to work very well. Maybe more like 30. (Twitter
displays 20, for comparison.)

I like 6 and I like the single text box message entry and the way the
pool selection is labeled "share with". We should probably not be
asking our users to learn what a "pool" is. Perhaps it should be
changed in the menu on the right as well, but to what?

I would prefer that we continue to let tags be entered using the
hashtag format rather than providing another field, though perhaps
this could be a configuration option. I would prefer it be possible to
specify tags that do not appear in the action message through a
different UI, through actions, or through the API, rather than in the
main UI.

Where are message tags displayed? I don't see any?

How do you add tags to a message? Just via hashtags? No extra text field?

Hi,

Next UI vote, this time for the message page template.

Nr. 4: http://www.joyreyes.com/clients/esme/4.html
Nr. 5: http://www.joyreyes.com/clients/esme/5.html
Nr. 6: http://www.joyreyes.com/clients/esme/6.html

Nr. 4 and 6 look very similar, the only difference is the grey background
behind the messages.
