Next time it'll no doubt be light knowing the brillance of BDX and B.A in skin selecting. (Not sucking up, they just choose some really good skins or make them)

Yea, It's so dark I have to get out and dust off my lite brite just to suffice. JK. I actually like it the way it is. When you say it changes with season, do you keep around the old skins? Because It's highly probable that I'll be wanting to keep this skin for the duration of my stay here.

Here's the thing, the skin before was perfect, a cooling mix of black and blue. The red causes a painful raping effect to my eyes, especially when you're not expecting it. Try making skins that are more bright and relaxing, but are are not so bright that your corneas will bleed.

For that to happen, bdx would have to change the skin on his site.
Technically, I didn't choose the colors. He did. I just followed the theme he wanted.. so if you have a problem with the colors, take it up with him.
And really, rape? That comment was neither funny nor appropriate, and I find it a bit offensive. Coming from someone who hates the color red, has vision problems, and who has been through it, the colors of this skin are not nearly as bad as you [melodramatically] make it out to be.
You say that black and blue was perfect, but who is to say that it wasn't hard on some members eyes?
Some people have a hard time reading text on a dark background. even if it is very light, and perfectly readable to others.
I remember when bdx had that grey skin with the dark gray text.. it was incredibly hard to read, and it gave me severe headaches from the eyestrain every time I came here.
Did I complain?
No, I did not, because I knew that it would change eventually, and lo and behold, it did.
The bottom line is that you cannot please everyone, and bdx has the right idea about alternating between light and dark skins every so often. You've been here since 2005 and you still don't get that?
Some skins will be light, and some will be dark, the best thing you can do, is come to terms with it and deal with it as best as you can, so that you aren't caught when you are "least expecting it."

Same with Clock Hass.
Also the writing shows up against the background without being too visual. It doesn't hurt my head when i scroll. I like it >.> With Black and white that happens a bit.

I would say that this bright is enough. I've always loved the skins in this forum...i remenber one that i really liked a few years ago...it was a green and dark one. Aeon was the main character on the upper section...that was a pretty cool skin.

lol, I haven't been around as long as most of you. I only joined here when BDX set up that Super Smash Brothers Brawl tournament. The skin then was cool and I really liked it. But then I went inactive for a time since I was caught up with Chatango. When I came back this was a huge surprise. But seriously, I think BDX and BA have a great sense of style.
