The Give Us Back Our Old Skin... Petitionabobber

Well, lets face it. The old skin was better. This skin scares people. It makes them angry. People see the skin and think "Wow, I'm in the mood for some spam tonight!". The old one was more relaxing, less.... how do you say.... "contrastical". And to be honest, this skin is just tiring.

So how 'bout it?

OMG more: What about a logo contest too? Involve those sig-freaks down there with something else. (Preferably after the skin change, if it happens)

...I do. It's quite obvious he is not "that" kind of communist, but rather something more like a marxist (or something close to it). I personally don't believe that China, USSR, Cuba, or really any modern day communist country has gotten the ideals behing communism right. Not to mention there's some severe flaws behind it that need some compensation, blah blah blah. But anyways, I do know what communism is "about". And I'd have to say that from what you say, you don't. Judging a political ... ideal, I guess... by second/first hand accounts isn't quite reliable. Especially considering that the leaders (wherever) are essentially exploiting the system for power and to force their political and possibly religious views as well as a steep class system on the rulees. And western media only inflicted bad social views on all communists since before Truman.

But yes, I do know how "communism" has essentially screwed over a lot (whole friggin' lot) of people. Believe me.

Now let's get back on topic, eh?

2007 edit: In retrospect, 15 year olds don't know shit. Even 15 year old me.

That uses bandwidth. The thing with this one is that it's a lot less graphics intensive than the old one, though not by much.

I completely agree with Shadow Wolf. Why do we have to have just one? The old skin only had images with the toolbar at the top. It wasn't more graphically intensive at all.
