This one's pretty hard on the eyes. I know. If you can find free ones that the community finds acceptable post them in here.
I quite like this one but can't afford it:

I hope you're more polite to your Ukranian friend.

It's 35 bucks.
I thought you lived in Switzerland on a 6 figure salary (or the equivalent take home with our taxes)
I'm unemployed but the main issue is I don't have a credit card or the want to pay for it.
Assuming the dugout is actually dead and this takes off I'm more than happy to pay for a skin that makes this place readable.
I'll pay for it if we like it.
That was my thinking. I just installed a clean one now for ease of use.
This one isn't perfect but it is much better than the one in the link.
Let's see if this actually takes off, first. If the old TTH suddenly comes back and is stable, I doubt many will stay here.

Seems to be plenty of free ones here - http://www.themesbase.com/vBulletin-...&order=&page=3
Speaking of which, I'm back on now. Stable may be another matter of course.
Phonics. My posts are being pre-moderated now. Think it was because I signed up when I had the hola extension switched on.
EDIT: Wait, this is working? Is it because there was a link in the other post?
lol nope jinxed it
I like this one - http://www.themesbase.com/preview/?preview=351
That's pretty close to what we had but that's about the best I'll say for it.
Yeah but you think this one is better than Phonics' first link so your eyes are clearly broken.
It is. Phonics' first link looks like you should be running it with Windows 95.
EDIT: I guess as related to this as anything else, can we have a fixed link back to the forum at the bottom of each page? There's the drop-down menu but it takes too long. TTH had the path links.
I think I'm the only person that doesn't mind this skin.
I have to say I do like the font.
But I hate the font in the quick reply box.
I'm starting to get used to this skin although it is a little bright, everything needs to be a bit smaller too.
Would taking the vBActivity Bars and Stats off the profile make the post boxes smaller?
Can it be any wider?
It was the fluid skin that was the default which spread across my whole screen which was horrible. So I changed it to the normal one that's fixed, narrower width and it's much easier on the eye. Is that what you mean by things needing to be smaller?
I think it's too bright though.
I'd prefer a narrower interface.

That one's decent, isn't it?
I like the one Phonics and Boydy posted too.
I've been using fluid, metro seems too squished together.
I more meant each individual post takes up too much vertical screen space. And I cannot stand how close the text is to the bottom of the blue bar at the top of each post.
Just far too much white space between the top and bottom of the post, so either the text moves down a bit or ideally the posts themselves are shrunk vertically. Which is why I thought taking off the stats and bars etc might do that.
Although thinking out loud, it may look less odd once people have signatures on here.
I've switched to Metro and I like it waaaay more. The fluid one's just way too wide, but I don't mind keeping the narrow Metro one actually.
The one Phonics suggested initially is still my favourite. Someone get it bought.
Every suggested skin has been worse than the last so far.
Is there no option to just alter the colours on this one?
If you'd like to learn CSS and go through each page painstakingly hoping there's no bugs anywhere, go ahead.
Well that's a bit shit. Does the designer of this one make any others?
A dark version of this skin would be perfect. ^^

That one is essentially old TTH no?
http://themeforest.net/item/ideal-a-...preview/575401
Similar again
I like that first one Demerit.
Yeah the first one is nice.
Is it compatible phonics?
Answer my own question, yes
Supports vBulletin 4.2.1, 4.2.2, 4.2.3
I think we should go with one of the other ones just to annoy Toby.
Alternatively, a dark version of what this essentially is:
http://themeforest.net/item/ideal-a-...preview/575401
I don't like it.
EDIT: That didn't work. Scroll to the bottom, select TF Ideal Dark Grey
Yeah I'm just keeping quiet from here because clearly you all have very different taste to me.
That's not what people mean when they say dark, I hope. Just replacing the white with a grey/blue and making the other bits a little darker like on TD.
This one's fine though, the more I use it the more I like it.
Yeah, this one's too white. We don't need black or dark grey bars on everything.
Yeah something a tad darker would be nice.
Just tried it on my phone. Holy shit, it works so well.
There was one really nice one when we were setting things up? I dunno what it was called though.
This skin doesn't even bother me anymore. As long as we're all together, that is all that matters.
This skin looks really good on mobile.
Alright, so since we are clearly setting up shop here we might wanna crack on with getting atleast one more skin option to keep everyone happy (or as close as we can get). Above is what we have had posted in here so far. Boydy was nice enough to provide this link:
http://www.themesbase.com/vBulletin-...&order=&page=3
So have a look and see what you think, anything that takes your fancy? I am up for chipping in, as are a few others so anything reasonable in cost could be done if we can actually pick something.
Of those I am a fan of the one Phonics posted or the first one by Demerit.
