Here is another white skin for you. :p However, I have built in a "power" button that, when pressed, would switch the color scheme to a more eye friendly color for low light situations.
I'm actually trying to develop a color switcher for mine as well. It maybe a little while though.

This is what I'm going to try to add

Pick any theme there and you'll see the color switcher on the right side.

I maybe up for a challenge ..... What did you have in mind?
I don't really have anything in mind, to be honest. It's something I've always complained about - not just about XF styles, but all forums - blue is the safe colour for most stylers and it's so damn boring :D

I'd like to see something really different.. Purples, Autumn colours, warm summer colours.

The problem with that is very few buy them. I try to design uniqueness while also creating a skin/theme that most people will enjoy. I can always mock up a custom skin if you are really wanting something unique. :)

I'm bored(in general)....show me stuff that inspires your design/colors and I will make one....I have yet to release a style yet so what the hell why not?

I'm not looking for someone to design a style for me, but thanks. I can design my own. I was just pointing out that blue is overdone and by no means unusual as a choice of colourscheme :D

And yet.... No one else has "really" released one. There are some with blue undertones, but the primary color is either white or black

My next skin wont really be a skin at all but a challenge to see what I can come up with. Something totally unique (or at least unique to me). No boring colors, unique features and a color picker (for you Adam lol).

Unique styles are best off being sold as one off custom jobs.

I'm not a big fan of blue either, it's too safe & overused or more specifically the variations of blue I see are the same old colour blues which offer nothing that is pleasing to the eye.
 
I seriously hate it when people publicly accuse me of doing wrong, when no wrong has been done. Such things almost make you want to do wrong.... Hell... If you're going to do the time and pay for it regardless of the truth... Why not do the crime?

So good (lucky) I'm a better person (or at least I try to be).... A PM would have been nice.
 
I think it may be time to pass the admin torch onto another member. I'm getting tired of game forum politics!

I take away something that they like when they get on my last nerve. I did that a couple weeks ago. I'm pretty pissed. Still pissed.

Oh it seems I have nothing to torture them with anymore. I mean they piss and moan if the site has downtime but that seems about the only thing I can do lmfao. I'm just not sure if I want to deal with the responsibility of it all. I suppose it's because I lack any staff with legit experience aside from 1 guy, so all duties fall on me. They know how to delete spam, that's about it. Was hoping they'd learn to recruit, support activity, and well do **** lol.

I more so like adding **** to the forum in terms of fun little toys my members might utilize. Doesn't help that the game niche I have (RDR) is not in it's 'prime'. People play it but my competitors and I have soaked up all the forum going sort. So it's just a matter of waiting for the next release and squeezing what interest is left.

Damn. I've been there. I've been mad about stuff like that before. I'm really only mad at two people this time though. All you need is one person to completely turn you off from forums in general.
