    Yes, totally agree. We need to get on with the times now.

    She needs a better animation, but she's cute, right?

    I love it! And yes, we should totally have an FFXIII theme.

    Oh, yes, I like it! I bet it'll look the business with the banner and icons. As an alternate I was thinking of that but with the colours reversed maybe. I may try experimenting in paint myself and see what it looks like!

    Remaking this post so I can post attachment. Although maybe you can edit them in, I cba to find out.

    There's a lot of white space in the top left but that's where whatever banner we have would go! I know a couple of bits of the background look a little patchy, but this is just a rough mock up, if it was to be the XIII skin someone could make it look a lot better than I have.

    EDIT: Hmmm maybe that light pink is a bit too light. But you get the idea.

    Still too bright. Needs more black and more women. I don't care if they happen to lack a third dimension.

    >>> Pink/Grey/Green are probably good colors too..
    It needs a banner too..
    >> The black orb glitters ominously... but nothing happens..

    I like it! I don't know if pink is the best pick for the XIII skin though. Maybe it's better to pick a colour scheme with broader appeal? I'm working on something too, although I keep getting distracted.

    A pink skin that's indented instead of full-width? I like it.

    I have an idea! Psychotic, you should make an announcement that asks members to post original FFXIII artwork or graphics (or even ideas) that they come up with in this thread or a new one! Since no new skins will be made until the next vbulletin upgrade, there would be plenty of time for people to make submissions.

    You could also make a poll of color choices (for the color scheme) for people to vote on.

    Paul said he didn't mind if I played around with his layout, and this is what I got. I fixed the colors and added some texting.

    I really like it!

    Paul's Lightning... Revised




    Added little lightning for ultimate cheesiness. Considered making it blink, but that might have made the universe collapse from sheer lamosity. It's easily taken out. XD

    It looks surprisingly adorable in an orange-creamy-peach sort of color. I think I might prefer this to the purple one, to be honest, but that's just me.

    I changed it in color mixer so it's not quite right, but you get the idea of what it'd look like:

    An Peachy Alternative
