Your design is very nice and professional looking. Thing is, your forum name is kinda creepy...I was hesitante to even click the link!

Welcome to TSL!

I have always been a big fan of the Aria skin design. Although i think the red style which you have chosen to create, although is unique, is a little too bright and bold. Try reducing the saturation and making it blend in the with silver a little bit more and you could have a wonderful alternative on your hands

the blues is very nice but aftet time i noticed it was "too" sutle, the orange will burn your eyes out, the chocolate is kinda yucky and the sand is too plain.......now as i comment on the skins design please keep in mind i mean "for my site" i bought aria cuz it looked so good but when my site was done it just didint fit right.

So i made the red one which i think fits my site but could use improvment, im going to take your suggestion into consideration

So i decided the style (or mainly just the colors) need improvment, what should i do guys? Change the color completly? Fix the red (if so in what manner so you suggest)

Or leave it be?

Thanks

It is good that you are trying to differentiate your site from the competition. Just that i thought personally that the red was a little too contrasting and bold, but perhaps more regular visits to the forum and it would become more normal and subtle.

I disagree. The colors suit the site perfectly. :/

Well, I like red and gray, so naturally, your skin appealed to me.
