Which skin do you favour?

When FM10 came out, I spent about 3 minutes having my eyes burned by the bright white skin before switching to the dark version, which I've stuck with ever since. I've always imagined that the majority of FMers also use the dark skin.

However, I've just realised that in 90% of the screenshots posted on this forum, the user is playing with the white skin. So that got me thinking a) how the hell can you stand it and b) I wonder how many players are using each skin?

If you're not using either, and instead using some ghastly other skin that you downloaded from somewhere, I think you need your eyes testing, but that's another thread altogether...

I use the FM09 skin available through steam

I definitely prefer darker skins, although i can see that people uploading screenies may go for the lighter skin as it may be clearer for people to see. I dont use the normal Dark skin but a downloaded different one that isnt at all ghastly

I'm using the dark skin. I would want to use the 09 skin but I didn't install through steam

Then you go in the "other horrid skin" category

+1 for Dark skin.

I like the dark skin. The other skin wasn't very good on my eyes...

I like the dark skin, makes it easier to read, but have recently gone to the sky sports skin instead.

I prefer the light skin, couldn't read the dark skin (light on dark is bad for the eyes). Though I doenloaded the base skin, which is just the default skin codes, and rewrote the colours a bit to give greater differentiation in the attribute bands.

I flick between each one every week or two as I get bored. Think I prefer the dark one though.

Flex, then dark. Anything but a light skin.

How can you manage to read on the light skin?

07 skin by Cleiria. I haven't voted because I don't class it as horrid. Its excellent and a perfect representation of the best skin ever for FM.

Do older skins work on fm10 then??

No, he's made an FM10 version of it. Its in the skinning forum.

Ah ok. Thanks!

Neue2.

My modified version ofc. Has become very popular in the GPTG.

Neue2 here aswell, although I really wish there was a Flex09-type skin available. That's my all-time fave skin.

I prefer the dark skin......cuz im black.

I dont even know where to start with that comment, so i shall just leave it..

I switch between 07 and a customized Steklo X every couple of months, dont really know why, i just do..

But to say they are horrid just because the OP says so is wrong imo, so wont vote

i haven`t voted for any of the 3 options as i use about 3 or 4 skins i downloaded from sortitoutsi and change them depending on if i can be bothered changing at that time i`m playing FM

How can you manage to read on the light skin?

Same way I read anything I type up on OpenOffice, dark on light is a lot easier to read than light on dark, especially if you're doing it for a few hours.

I am a big fan of this, I use Neue2 with Tyoldinho's changes or a skin called Seven which is beautiful. Can't stand either of the default skins.

dark one is just fine for me

i dont understand why there is no option for "a good custom skin"

Neue2 ***** all over the default ones, as do some other user made skins.

Flexion is the best skin ever created for FM, but the better skin in the default skins in FM10 was the dark skin.

However I hope that SI ditch this latest skins and return to Flexion for FM11.

I just love the onepiece skin

Can't use a dark skin, I've tried numerous downloaded ones that were dark but just cant use it. I use the FM Default light skin now.

Not voting as the 2 I use mainly aren't hideous. I like the Vitreous one but I love Tyoldinho's modified Neue2 skin.

I use Skin skin.
