Which forum skin do you prefer?

Having just noticed that you could change the look of this forum I decided to go through each one to see which I thought was best. In the end I chose the Glass one. I think it is a lovely shade of blue ( Welshy take note ;) ) and it makes a nice change from looking at the default one.

So, me being a nosy sod and all that, I was wondering which skin was the most popular. So what do you prefer then Default, Glass or Cethin?

I've been using Cethin for longer than anyone else (perks of being a mod ;) ) and I rather like it. Sometimes people change their font color, which makes things look all wonky, but except when posts look blank because someone used blue text, it is a very nice, clean skin.

Amy: But how did it end up in there?
The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.

I'm torn but I stick with the default so I know what all the tens of thousands of guests see ... For me that effects how images, and even the text impression will be when posting. Plus I'm stuck on needing good contrast to ease a specific type of eye strain. Only a few of the icons from glass seemed nicer, but I dont focus on that much, so no loss.

Having to tailor avatars/sigs to ensure they blend/work with too many skin choices can also be really annoying. Thankfully the shifts here are minor variations more or less.

If you use Firefox , No Squint is great. You can change the colour of the text and background of any website to make reading it easier. One I used it on was Blueprints.com as I found they had too much orange for my liking making the text hard to read, so I changed it to a more sensible colour and it has made all the difference.

I use default because that's what I'd always used before I learned about the alternate skins, it's easy on the eyes, looks better with most of the images IMO, and I know what most people are seeing.
