It will be a lot of work, but I will change if there is a LARGE MAJORITY that wants a dark skin, or different skins.....the front page probably will not match skins, but there is portal software that may allow it.
 
The voting will stay up for about 30 days, and you CAN change your vote until the last minute.
 
 
I will add, and hope it sways a few votes.......I worked VERY HARD, and was very proud to have the front page and ALL pages match the forum!..... it will most likely have to be different if you vote for several skins to choose from.

I like this theme better, just include multiple skins for those who want it.

I appreciate what ACAMS did for this skin. If people just want a dark one, use 123's Stylish resking instead of making ACAMS spend large amounts of time making a new one that I for one, would not want.
My above post explains everything about everything.

Well it looks like it may not take 30 days      :ouch:
 
That portal thing is crap!!!
 
You guy's can check it out here http://robotcombatgames.com/Forum/index.php
 
You can look for new skins you like, but THEY MUST BE FOR SMF 2.0 RC2  http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/
 
Post the link to the ones you like here, and I will check them out and maybe put up a poll BECAUSE I am not going to make logos and such for very many skins. (plus I will have to install them on the test forum to see if they work with the modifications we have installed. (and probably have to work my butt off to get them to work)

The skin is fine. Don't feel like you have to change it just because a few people are complaining.

I want to thank you for your efforts ACAMS, much appreciated

one note... those with bigger avatars now have a scroll bar underneath them as the column is to thin but its not much of a problem

I will have to make my candy transparent PNG's now as my avatar doesnt look as cool to users on the black theme D:

There is a shrink or expand header button in the top right corner to show unread posts since last visit.
