What's up with this sudden dark skin? I can understand having one, but this one's really hard to read, and not all that pretty. (No offense to whoever made it.)
Please don't get rid of the old white/red default skin. New viewers will judge the forum based off the skin alone. If it doesn't look pretty and somewhat professional looking right off the bat, they will skip town for another forum. (I know, people are shallow.) Also, though I'm sure you already know this...you can have multiple skins. |

The only reason why I don't like having multiple skins for users to choose is because on how I update them. For example, the front I have the next episode display. I'd have to change it on the other skins as well. Same with subpages.
We'll see...I've run, and currently have, many forums both with dark and light skins...I just try to theme it up with the show |

I prefer this one to the old one, so I think some new viewers will also like it. If they don't register because they don't like this one, they may skip town for another forum because they won't like the old white/red skin. I find this one is more in agreement with the show, it's more mysterious. We'll see the result of the poll. It takes all sorts to make a world! |

IP.Board is fairly popular, so there's got to be a way to get the header working easily. This can't be the first forum that updates it header once a week. |

I don't mind the dark skin but when you post you can't see the writing on the previous posts and if you suddenly forget what you want to say or wanted to add something and refer back, you can't see it. Is there any way you could give us just one more skin so we can see the previous posts when we are posting? Of course, if this is only happening to me, just ignore me!
 I also run an IPB board and have a few different skin selections. It is a bit irritating to have to add coding to all skins when you change something but unless it is majorly complicated, it doesn't take that long generally speaking. Just a suggestion, no worries if it can't be done
