Because I've been busy with some stuff, I pose this question to you.
Would you like one skin for the board? I have a few skins, and I don't know how many of them are being used. I would like to know if there's a consensus to drop all but one of the skins.
That skin will ultimately be re-done (or a new one will be re-made).
EDIT: The skin will be somewhat like the "test skin" I'm making. 11px font (one px bigger than the skin you're currently using, for those who can't read the traditional 10px). One fluid color for the post backgrounds.
I'll re-make the banner and the new/old icons.

Please don't go to just one skin. Users tend to not like it if you start taking customization options away from them, even if they don't actually use those options themselves. It's just bad form, unless there's a real technical reason why this or that feature has to go away.
Right now, probably the biggest obstacle preventing more people from using skins is finding exactly where the option is hiding, as it isn't exactly what I would call "intuitively placed." That's the fault of Proboards, certainly, but perhaps a tutorial post on how to change your skin preferences wouldn't go astray?

It's just bad form, unless there's a real technical reason why this or that feature has to go away. You've seen the test skin, yes? (Profile > Edit Profile > Settings.) What happens if I did that theme in different colors? Would it still be too much? I'd keep the grays, but change up the green that I have so that it's a blue, or an orange, or something else.

I gotta agree with thekid965 on this one. I like keeping the customization.

I gotta agree with thekid965 on this one. I like keeping the customization. The question I just asked really didn't get answered. I'm making new skins. Look at "Grey / Green" and "Gray / Blue". Those are kind of what I have in mind. Do you like them?

I'm kind of meh with the new skins, unless you keep the title grapics. That's just my opinion, though...
