Premium Membership Skins

The skins suck. All but 1 of the new ones are even FF themed. And none of them have an EoFF banner. If you need more, make a thread in the Graphic Design Forum as a competition to create the best FF themed banner and fill it in, so that they don't suck so damned much. Hold one every month until they're all filled up. Use the first 3 winners or something.

But seriously, they suck, I don't think any of them even say EoFF on them. I might end up forgetting where I'm posting if I use one of them.

Hey, man. We're already on top of this.

There will probably be a competition relating to the new skins, soon.

I do agree that they suck.

Yeah, I heard that there was a discussion in the staff section, but I figured, "What the hell" and I posted my complaint here.


Also, the person I was talking to told me to do it as well. Blame him.

:jess:!

I told him to do it anyway to see what the members had to say about it, and to encourage you lot to get a move on with it. So let's hear the voice of the public! Hyah!

Although not once did I use the word "discussion".

:blahblah: Specifics

I'm still waiting for screenshots of the skins.

so am I...

*bans*

Trust me, you don't want to see screen shots, they really suck ;_;

I want to see how sucky they are. :)

Google "Free Forums Skins" and you'll find them no problem.

the christmas ones are pretty!

Is it Christmas? No, it's freaking July. That "Christmas in July" thing is just poppycock, so it doesn't count. And why are there two?

because they were available? :p

Where did all the creative people go?! Make some more yourself or something.

If you want it done, do it yourself :p

Believe me, I would! O_o'

well then DO IT. and stop whining :P

<_< Fine, I'll start working on that now.

the skins were made as various experiments in the past.

we decided now to offer extra skins to premium members.

we haven't made good skins for them yet, but we are now offering the crappy skins we made before as a sample.

Timing might not be the best, but imagine having choices of good skins.

Also, I thought EoFF did away with the whole "Post Count" thing, cause at least one of the skins has that displayed.

And this statement is coming from the person who couldn't design his own skin for his own forum, nor has any knowledge of color coordination, and tried to make me do one for his forum.

Also, EoFF still has post counts, they just don't mean anything anymore. How else would you know how many posts someone made? By counting each and every single one of them?

Yes

staff can check post counts in our control panels.

Yeah, but they're displayed under the users avatar, which is why I brought it up.

Non-Staff can also check by going to "Find all soandso's posts" or whatever that thing is in the user's profile.

I found nothing...

Then I guess they were paid for ^_^

Screenshot the worst of the lot, and post it up. I want to see how badly they in fact are.

those aren't necessarily accurate, since they only include posts you have the permission to see.

I see, they were accurate for me, though.

I don't particularly want to start a new thread for this, but were there changes made to the Classic skin? It looks wrong, for some reason, but I can't figure out what's different.

Looks about the same to me. I don't remember any changes?

Dear god, they ARE ugly. Actually some of them are okay or have a lot of potential once they get a decent banner. Others though... "Game Board"? Even with a banner, it'll look awful. The colors just aren't there. And Black Ice + Black Smart are redundant. Get rid of some of them? :]

Fencing Cactaur makes me want to do naughty things to cl_out.

Edit: Theres also an Apple theme :O And does this remind anyone of Fools Gold?

Edit2: Post counts :D

Posts: 4,217

Hell, just for the sake of it, heres everyone with over 10,000 posts:

1. Loony BoB
2. Psychotic
3. ShlupQuack
4. Del Murder
5. eestlinc
6. Leeza
7. Yamaneko
8. rubah
9. Rye
10. Kawaii Ryûkishi
11. nik0tine

Does that count as abuse :p?

Wow, these really are terrible. Why would anyone pay for them?

Black Ice is ok, so is Lilac. But an EoFF banner would make it nicer.

Me, I'm staying with EoFF 2.0, my favorite :)

stuff
If you don't want them, then don't pay for them. If you want pm space, then pay for them, but don't use them :p The $8 wouldn't be less if they weren't there, and you wouldn't have them there to complain about!

I just feel bad for anyone who joins after the preview period is over and decides to pay for some bitchin' new skins only to find out that there are none. :P
