ZakRhyno Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Will the default skin change to something else when the Suite 4 comes out? The current one seems to feel pretty old out of date, just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyF Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Interesting question. :smile: The current skin does have a nicer feel to it though imo compared to say the first 3.0.x skin, a process of it evolving I guess. I do remember my first thought when I first saw this design on the 3.2.x board was that it was nice there was a hint of blue in it like the older legacy series, this colour does seem to suit.

bfarber Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 We will see a new skin with 4.0, yes. Updating our skin is a fine balance. Do it too infrequent, some users feel it starts to get old or stale. Do it too frequently, our skinning community has to work harder with each release updating their skins. There has to be a balance there, so we generally only update the skin in a major way once every few versions, depending on necessity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is IPS going to do the same thing they did before and take entries for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikki will design our new skin, just as he designed our skin for the last several major versions that had new interfaces included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before IPB 3 came out IPB had a contest that allow people to enter skins. That one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
