Yeah, this exactly. Although I'm tempted to mess around with creating my own style because I'm not a huge fan of the defaults here.

Yeah, Hero style here, used blue on the old ones too. Has nothing to do with the games, and everything to do with the fact that so much red hurts my eyes after a few minutes. Only thing worse would be yellow.
Villains, because I can't actually read the text on the Heroes skin (it just messes with my eyes).

I had been using blue the entire time I've been on before the switch. But I can't STAND how it looks now, at least unless they've changed it in the last couple weeks? I use red now. It's a bit easier on the eyes, I think.

hero blue.
the villain skin is a recipe for eyestrain.

I use the Villain most of the time but I do switch sometimes but It is Villain like 80% of the time.

Villain skin! The hero one really bothered me for some reason.

It's funny how some people get eyestrain from red but not blue, or vice versa. I wonder if there's a reason for that in the eye.

I'd say a combination of monitor calibration and the cone's calibration in the eyes. After reading the text on the hero skin on my laptop for a while all the letters start getting blurred and distorted for me, making it extremely hard to try to read- while the red background is perfectly fine for my eyes. But, while reading the text for a good while on another monitor (one where everything is much darker) I have no trouble with the blue skin.|

It might be that the red sensing cones in my eyes are stronger than the blue cones, and the people with the reverse issue have the reverse imbalance... and the blue/red shade is just right to cause issue with whites for us.
Or it could be witches. It's probably witches.

Thanks for the plug. I reskinned the Hero skin to be as close to the original UBB Hero skin as possible. It seems those used to it wanted that (I never like the Hero skin, so, I gave the peoples what they wanted).
My villain reskin was tweaked for colors which were similar to the old villain skin, but, better shades, IMO. However, if you look at the script coding, I left in the values for the old villain skin for people to chose the colors they want by doing a little editing on their own.

Just wondering what do you people use for your style on the forums, either heroes or villains. So what style do use on the forums?
I always use villains looks nice IMO.
