I was wondering if I could somehow make a new skin for the forums or someone could make a new one for me. All of the skins except the blue-green one are hard to look at. They make my eyes sore if I look at them too long. The skins are all too bright or too dark. I was hoping for a pastel blue, green, or purple with white, or something that looks good with it. I'd also be happy to make a new banner to match the skin.

PJ has a skin I made. I called it "Vespiquen". Forum's general skin.

I tested it a few weeks ago. Very nice but I like the Bluegreen skin the most.
Edit: if you want Vespiquen PM me and I'll PM you back.

Yes, I've tried that one. It's okay, but I perfer the blue-green one. :/ I wouldn't know how to make skins for the forum, though. Although, I did make a nice skin for my old Neopets profile page once.

I have an idea for you: Create a Proboards forum and then click on the admin button (right to calendar). Then click on Customize your forum - Skins / forum colors. Then create a new skin. Have fun! Edit: Hey, once I was a member at Neopets too!

Here is my first skin. I like it! ^-^ ffhfhfh.proboards42.com/index.cgi?Do you like it? Edit: Change the default skin to Maplewood. "And ehy won't somebody comment about Vespiquen???" If its Pokemon Jewels skin than it looks alright. Not my taste, but its good.

It's pretty good, but I'm not sure about the white background. Could you use a bluey-grey from the buildings or something? BTW, if you tell me all the hexcodes and stuff I'll add it to here.

I tried using the greys from the houses and the lighter green colors from the trees, but they didn't look good. I hope the white is alright. Actually, I just found out that I can create skins here. XD So, I can add it if you want.

The Swamp skin is good, but I have a crit; Please brighten the background.

Sure, go ahead and add it, mls. I did the Fire skin when I was a mod.

If you want to be mod, TL, you need to do stuff we need you to do, rather than just posting what you've already done Try learning how to use a wiki, and then help add pokémon and move descriptions to the wikidex. That would be more useful than the random trainer sprites you post. Don't feel like we're annoyed with you particularly - pretty much everyone who first comes here starts off by posting random stuff. The trouble is, we've got 4 years of random stuff sitting on this forum and it badly needs organising into something coherent. Thus the wiki.

Ok... I'll start being active with the wiki.

"The Swamp skin is good, but I have a crit; Please brighten the background." Thanks. I tried a brighter blue, but it didn't look good with the brown and I'd rather not use white. I'll try something else, maybe I will find a better color. Also, keep in mind that it is a test cite and some of my skins are being worked on and might not look good. So, it's best to wait until I've said that I made a new skin before you comment on them. Please look at the Swamp skin. (You need to change the default skin) Do you like it? ffhfhfh.proboards42.com/indexP.S. Sorry I haven't made any new maps lately. I been busy going places and stuff over vacation. I can do small tasks like organizing, making wiki pages, and making skins if you like, though.

It's not bad, but some of the text is hard to see. You're learning though Proboards isn't ideal skinning territory really. You'd be better off with SMF or something to get really creative.

^-^ Thank you. That's nice of you. I also made you a global moderator on my test cite so you can help with the skins if you like.

Thanks. And what font do you use for the banners? Cause I really like it. But the real problem is that I don't know to make skins from GM users.

I use the font, Scott. I like it since it looks like my handwriting and it is my last name. I downloaded it from a website. I don't know what it was, though. I like the skin.
