Exactly, and it's absolutely fine. Just code it, because I'm really getting sick of this temp skin.

I'd hate to put things down, but I have to agree. So hurry up and code it, PLEASE!

We have to agree on the background though because some see a similarity between this skin and a certain holiday.

To be honestly, most of your skins looks too similar. Try working on less cramped designs and, take a look at sites like www.pcworld.com and www.theplanet.com.

..I did like four times. IMHO PCWorld looks way to cramped, and The Planet has barely anything on it.

Good, that's elements of a proper design. Look at the color coordination and how the abundance of imformation can be used in such a small area without looking like a free newspaper. The Planet is professional.

Yeah, actually I like The Planet's design, not so much PC World though.

I really like the look of The Planet.
I really like the colour of PC World. I think that PC World's skin has a lot of potential if there wasn't so much text.

About the skin. I know I said that orange was ok. But the longer I look at it, the more I'm reminded of Halloween.
