I'm using the dark green one briefly here to get a taste for it.... and I find the text a little hard to read. Could the colour of all dark green text be changed to #6F8255? Onmouseover could be #B7C0AA. Both of these colours are already somewhere in the colour scheme, I just picked them out.

Just a thought, I think it needs to be a little more readable.

What version of vB do we have here? Maybe you could note that somewhere in the sitewide footer along with "Powered by vBulletin" ect. ect.

Anyways, a few skins I like:
vB 3.7
Webber Classic - vBulletin.org Forum
Rooq Classic - vBulletin.org Forum - this is okay for a generic "plain" skin


vb 3.6
Chestnut Style - vBulletin.org Forum - "Chesnut" I REALLY LIKE THIS ONE!!
BlaK-Ice - vBulletin.org Forum - I prefer this MUCH over the our current dark themes

vB 3.5 (I think, ... I found these on another forum... quite simple skins, are they usable?)
vB Skins - Powered by vBulletin - some light green

Grr... well, I'll keep looking for more, I'm getting called for dinner... *leaves*

I knoooooo0oooooow, that's why I suggested it.

I'd like to see it in demo form though.... *searches for such a thing*

EDIT: .... here's one: vBSkinConcept.com - édité par vBulletin®

I might even be able to fashion the images for a second row of buttons if needed.
In other words, I'd really like to see this style implemented.

Ooooh, by the way... check the bottom of this page:
Simple Grafix - Powered by vBulletin
That's the BlaK Ice style I suggested... I really like the Top 5 Stats at the bottom of their forum.... is there any chance we could see something like that implemented here? I think it's a nifty idea.

It is pretty... but making buttons that match a skin can be a bitch.
Then again, unless you like pulling teeth, making skins can be a bitch

A few new skins would definitely be nice though... or a "moldy peach v2.0"

The Chestnut is stunning! Reminds me of the Mac. Mods? Mike? Chopin?

I do not think that a dark skin would fit this forum, they are more for gaming-forums in my eyes, but maybe that is just me.

Agreed, but some people prefer them... such as Robin.

I'll install some more skins in a month or two when the next version of the forum software is likely to be released (it would be unwise to do so now, because that would just create extra work during the upgrade).
