"Lastly, as all of you avid members know, ForgeHub's current forum skin is beginning to look a bit dated, so I am happy to inform you that we will be receiving a much needed facelift. That's right! A new skin! The skin isn't done yet, so you will have to stick with the white and blue for the time being. I can tell you that it will be tall, dark, and handsome"

Think ForgeHub is starting to feel some pressure to change from our side? ;)

Go Blak-Ice! :thumbup:

Let's blame GraveDigger!

But in all seriousness, when's "I Can Has Test Burgers" coming out?

Or "Ganye Style" for that matter?

I Can Has Test Burgers no longer exists and was only for testing, and I have no idea if Ganye plans to release Ganye Style but currently it is unfinished and needs a better name :P.

Ganye style still need a lot more work, because none of the improvements that we made to the other styles have been implemented yet.

My Style won't be released for quite awhile: It was mainly just me testing things, and getting used to HTML/CSS/PHP. Thomas sent a message to Lukems regarding using Suoer-Intendant for a style, and that'll probably be the one that gets released.

Still haven't heard anything so I was going to try the rest of the Gold-texted-people. :thumbup:

I'd really like the graphix team to start on this, Bungie loves their community and I don't see why they wouldn't let us use it for something that we're not gaining any money for.

Woozy and I (The GFX Team that designs stuff for the website, banners, etc.) were planning on working on a Super Intendent style for the forums, but we needed Bungie's permission first.

Not for me. They changed the theme. The colors look better than their old one, but some of the features and stuff are not good.

It's not the same color scheme, but it's kinda close. The thing that I find somewhat humorous is they outsourced for the skin, while we're getting our GFX team to be able to code/design everything.

It's not bad, but considering how much they paid, there are so many parts that could be better

The new skin really doesn't suit Forgehub, in my opinion.

I'm not saying that it looks horrible, but since they payed to have it created you would think that blatantly obvious things like mismatched buttons would have been resolved.

i like the new skin alot.

i normally dislike darker colored skins (not racist) but i really think they mastered a contemporary one.. especially with there banner. it looks purdy.

however i think that ours is good too.. and maybe we should have an option to use this one.. or one more like theres?

Maybeh. Woozy's style's done, I think, and we still need permission from Bungie to release the Super-Intendent style. Anyways, I was gonna start working on a style after I read up a bit on the coding.

That's what happens when you get Free stuff versus paying for it. ;)

Quite Honestly I think that 75% of the people here (who know about it) actually use Blak-Ice.

Also, is it just me, or does the Arbiter have a large chunk cut out of his Shoulder? Or maybe it's that his shoulder is dislocated down like 6 inches......


And, ForgeHub payed at least $400 (http://www.minerskinz.com/) for their themes, probably more.
