What makes the skins bad?

1. The colors, they are too bright and blinding. There are some people who have problems viewing stuff with really bright colors. Its hard for them to read or see it and after a while it would give them a headache. Tone the colors down some. You can still have the same basic colors but its best for it to not be neon bright.

2. You have the same colored shading on EVERY skin it looks out of place either remove it or change the shading color to match the skin.

3. The logo looks bad and is a little too big. Make it smaller in size or width really. Too much drop shadow is on the logo as well, drop shadow is not really something that is done too much anymore in the manner you have done it. The extraordinary amount of drop shadow makes it look cheap and thrown together.

4. Change the border color in the various places in the skin. The border is all the standard default border color which looks bad in a skin of a totally different color.

5. Some of the skins have a really light font color on a really light background. This is a no-no. Some of your viewers will not be able to read that. The font will blend into the background making it impossible for some to read it at all. not everyone has a nice pretty monitor, some people are on laptops, some on desktops, some on tablets so you have different monitor types & resolutions to worry about. Having seriously light font on a light background is not good.

6. In for a penny in for a pound, if you are going to make a custom skin for your site change the icons and other graphics to match it and match them to the skin they are in.

7. You need to add space at the bottom of the breadcrumbs bar. It is right on top of the advertising you have. There should be a space in between that bar & the ads.

Quite honestly ALL 5 skins do not look like they are completely done. They look half done kinda like you just threw them together in an afternoon. Look at other forums and if you like something they did try and do something similar. Look at popular forums and you will see that their skins are FINISHED entirely.

I did just throw them together an afternoon lol
