Just wondering what you guys think. These will be on my forum, as the default is crappy and somehow pisses me off.

Obviously I think your opinions matter, so dont let me down ;) :p

Thanks!

edit: img tags dont work? meh, just copy and paste i guess....

images for people like rico <_< :

<-- set 2

set1.gif
<-- set 1

(im too lazy to take screenies of the skins so w/e)
 
I like the S8 one but you should change the font to a bigger and clearer one.
Background needs to be less flashy I think.

Perhaps you should simply try some others... :unsure:
 
Put those links and images in your original post as well, no way am I copying and pasting all of them individually.

Yes, I am that lazy.
 
Arg! The garishness! My poor eyes :mellow:!!


ps, If you can fix the buttons n stuff I think S10 will look good.
 
They were all apalling. I would use the original skin rather than any of those hands down.
 
I'll be blunt, they all suck. I'm sure you can get hold of decent skins, and if not, either make one yourself or use the default one. Why? Read on:

Unholy1 has those intrusive big shapes as board headers, as well as the those bars on its sides, which make it very distracting. However, overall and color-wise it is the lesser of three evils.

Redstar0600 is too monochromatic (no, white login forms aren't gonna save it) and lacks a good contrast between text and background. I also happen to hate red text on a web site.

Finally, the colours of Andg 9310 are all cold and don't work together at all. The board headers look very amateurish, with that green shape that has no purpose really besides making the thread titles hard to read.

I did vote however, because I hate not seeing the results each time I load the page :D. I voted for the last option of each poll. The second set of buttons is quite good.

I hate red as the main color on any themes for anything computer related, that's why I hate my friends computer, he has red everything because he's cool like that

So hang on...

You made peoples' eyes bleed by voting which skin to choose. Then you go and choose a completely different skin.

Crazy, crazy person.

well, everybody hated these skins, and quite frankly, so did I ;)

I came across the skin im using now and liked it instantly. Believe it or not, the vast majority of the kins out there suck balls :)

anyway, comments? I made the banner myself in photoshop by trial and error and undoing if i didnt like an effect. Im really proud of myself B)
 
If you're happy with it, that's what matters. The only word of advice I have is the simpler the better.
