I thought it would be cool if you had the option to change the skin of Bungie.net, for a change-maybe to silver or black. Can anybody esle back me up?

Nah.

Bungie's background layout is perfectly fine.

Plus, the text color, and the background go together, which helps point out named links.

I don't really understand what you mean. If you mean Achronos changing the background layout, it's okay, but just regular members shouldn't and won't be allowed to.

I like this skin a lot. Links are easily identified, and the text is the perfect brightness.

No. There really isn't a point, and it would give people the illusion that they have some freedom. Plus, there's a bunch of avatars that have a background to this color, and being able changing it would screw those up.

Psst.....Hobo, those avatars are transparent. It will not screw them up.

Anyway, I agree with Hobo. It would give some the insite of freedom on this site. Which, as stated in the code of conduct, "You have no rights." Just wait till the New Hawtness V2.0 comes out if you want a change.

Because you are what you eat, and you know what it is.

I think that to everyone else your text should be the same as everyone else's. But to you, it shows up as a color you choose so you can find your posts easily, and possibly use this feature to find select people's posts easier.

Not to mention, make people have the false hope of looking like a moderator. It's like when you are 5 and you tie a towel around your neck and run around your house in your underwear. You look and feel important from your perspective, but you are still normal and crazy like evryone else.

Kind of like that saying. "You're unique. Just like everyone else."

I like the current blue, it just seems right.

They're called themes, people. Anyway, applying them to the main forums is a bad idea, seeing as the current theme is so recognizable. It wouldn't be Bungie if it wasn't blue.

  • 12.22.2006 6:20 PM PDT

So true, changing the skins in the main forum would be a bad idea. Instead, don't you think it would be better if we got some new Group themes?

Honestly, I think a few of you are just afraid of changing B.net for fear of some unknown repercussions. That, or no one understands the suggestion. That a user should be able to change how (s)he sees B.net. While I do think being able to customise your view of B.net would be a cool feature, it is far and away an unnecessary feature. I also sincerely hope that no one who said no was saying it for fear that Achronos would get mad at you if you said B.net could look cooler than it currently does. Personally, i would not change the skin If I had the choice, unless, of course, there was a seriously awesome one that is even better than this one. However, just because I don't want to change B.net doesn't mean other people don't as well, so I could see it as a possible feature for NEWER HAWTNESS, should it be deemed a big enough demand.

Made an account in 2006. Visited Bungie.net in 2005. Joined Xbox Live in 2005. It's amazing to see how the site, Bungie, and Halo have evolved over the years. Utterly amazing.
