... I'm never going to complain about a forum skin ever again...

I don't like it... Makes it hard to read. Ack.

I have a question-- why is there only one skin? The others are already available, and not everyone has the same taste. There are also a few issues with this one over the old default skin-- for example, this one's brown background cuts out / hides the black text which a number of forum features use. Encourage people to use it, make this the default-- but could you please put the old one back in as an option?

Edit: Though I did start this post before the others which imply that this is, in fact, a joke.

Please do remember when picking skins and playing jokes that the forums are part of the public face of the game, and poor visual presentation may drive away potential players.

Teddy Bears, Weee!

Blue Dragon was, and still is my favorite, even when it wasn't fully supported. I don't have a preference between any of the others, they're not earth-shatteringly good or bad, they're just forum skins with different colorful designs on them to spice them up a bit. I think you all complain to much about something so trivial.

Thank the stars for my user CSS!

I especially like the "at no small expense" part.

Anyone else thinking of the old adage... "Careful what you wish for?"

Remember this, the next time you're ranting about "nerfs" and log in to find that everything's been turned into colourful safety foam.

Yae Tae'daes! There is a small problem that needs to be fixed though, some text isn't showing up on the background.

Namely : " > Lusternia Forums > Life in Lusternia > Common Grounds"

This goes back to what someone else said. I've run web forums for my own site for some time, and people will simply stop using forums or even going to your site if they are irritating to the eyes or just plain unattractive. Obviously people won't quit Lusternia over the forums, but some may just stop coming (unless that's the goal). My intention when starting this thread wasn't to bash it and demand a new one. I thought that they would appreciate constructive criticism to make it a really nice skin.

I'm assuming this is a joke though.

Whats wrong with the skin? Its great! except for that one line.

Personally, this skin reminds me of a TY collector's website, or I would guess this was a forum for a site called "Teddy Bear's Attic".

edit: oh yay

Heh, of course it was a joke! (Is Xenthos the only one who fell for it?)

Anyway, we are keeping the Lusternia Skin as the default but have also released a bevy of new skins for your eyeball pleasures. For those with PDAs, note the skin called "PDA Optimized" is just for that.

Have fun!

BOOO!!! Too many options, I can't choose, now I'm wasting my entire lunch hour picking skins! BOO!!!

Is Shallach dust the only one with the cool panel on the side?

Heh... I actually LIKED the joke skin... very cute, huggable bears!
