    The skin is still being worked on. It was brought live as an option to work on it further:).

    Yes, Oger is one of the reasons the Ogre typo thread was started:).

    Here is most of the check list and their most recent response to it:

    1. The overall skin is way too boxy. This hurts the look of the skin. - fixed2. The reply area inside threads is way too bright and out of character with the rest of the skin. - fixed
    3. Not sure what can be done about this one, but smileys at some buttons have thin white rings around them that hurts the look. - not fixed
    4. Several Menu Items from the Top Nav Bar are not there. The following need to have links up there: - fixed
    a. Home (for the main site)
    b. Review Directory
    c. Forum Shop
    d. Chatbox
    e. MMORPG Blog
    f. MMO Wiki
    g. Contact
    h. Quick Links
    i. Remove one Triple Triad (It is listed twice) :- Some of the links are added but i am not able to find out where to add Forum shop, MMORPG Blog, MMO Wiki
    6. The edit area in chat is showing white text on white so it can't be read. :- fixed
    7. The icons in the PM area couple lighter to show up better. :- fixed
    8. The games in the arcade are off to the side for some reason. :- :- This will distort the whole design because the values used in the background sections will effect the main home page of the forum and the other relevant areas!!
    10. The forum blog's calendar is now too wide and none of the buttons in blogs have images now. :- fixed
    11. The redirect uses old image. :- fixed
    12. The new images for threads (the circle with controller in them) occasionally show up on the wrong thing, such as closed when it's a new post, or telling me that i've posted in it when it's closed. :- fixed
    13. The multi-quote, blog, and thanks buttons no longer have images. :- fixed
    14. Edit boxes, post boxes, pm boxes, anywhere else you type is still black text on white aside from chatbox, though it does show up correctly. :- fixed

    Ok, the option is back to choose which skin you want to use:). You can check the list above to see what is done and what is not done.

    ogreman, I've always felt the bar was far too overbloated. If you can do it, I would like for Triple Triad, Ogre Wars, and the Arcade to be condensed into a 'Games' menu on the bar.
    And I would like the Search box to move to the top right corner, just above the User info bit. (The bit where it says 'Welcome, username')

    And it's still too blocky. Rounded corners for everything please.

    And the page numbers at the bottom would look much better if they had no background at all. The main background is already dark, so why have extra backgrounds on the buttons? No point in my opinion.
