Two new skins are available for this forum.
default: various shades of green and pictures of Terry in some of his various roles.
Rain: various shades of blue and a background image of Locke in the rain.
You can choose either at the bottom of your profile page. Let me know if any changes need to be made.
There may be another skin choice in the future. (For now we'll start with these two)

Just wanted to add that I tweaked the colors on the default skin a bit. (and changed the name. It is now called "Terry") and created a second rain skin. This one features the picture of Locke in the rain from ATBCHDI and has a color scheme featuring gray greens. (To go with the picture's background.)

You can make great new skins. come to the ME board for some ideas. I am sure that our resident skinmaker (birdy) can give you pointers.

I'll do that, Is the ME board hosted by proboards? I have a lot of good ideas but I'm limited by the options proboards gives for making skins.

Yes, we are probobard as well. Birdy is a tremendous artist. She has made us so many skins. You are welcome to copy them for yourself.

When I think of Terry, I think of yellow. I think it would be cool to have a yellow skin.

I'll see what I can come up with. I know the perfevt picture to use for a yellow skin.

Hey, Xgirl, how about the pic of T in his orange shirt? Not for the yellow skin, but one with some orange...oh, how about orange slices? And then we should have one of him in that lovely red shirt.

Those are good ideas. I'll work with those eventually. Right now I'm working on the yellow skin. (That will be a good summer skin. The orange and red ones could be more for fall and the holidays.)

Heh, yeah, if you want to make the red skin (Redskin, heh.) a Christmas theme, that'd be kinda cool. But if you use orange slices for the orange skin, then it could be used any time. If you used fall leaves with the orange skin, then sure it would be for autumn. Feel free to use the same pic for more than one skin.

I'll do that. I made the yellow skin yesterday. It's called Mellow Yellow. I used the picture of Terry on the beach that Abbykitty used in the "summer lovin" wallpaper. (The picture is from a Good Morning America interview I think.) I had another version of that picture but I couldn't find it (not sure which drive it's stored on.) so I cropped the wallpaper one. I think the skin looks really summery and cheerful.

Whoa! When I first saw the yellow, I thought, NO! But now that the entire thing has loaded I like it. Yeah, that's from GMA, the one that Terry didn't show up in! Grrrr! Ticked me off that they obviously talked to him, but didn't air his piece.

That stinks that they wouldn't air that piece. (You can download it from Lost-media if you want to watch it.)
Does the skin load really slowly? I recently switched to DSL (which I'm loving) and I haven't tried accessing the forum on dial-up. (I'll have to try when I'm at my parents' house. If the backgrounds do load slowly I'll try using smaller pictures.)

They did air the piece, Xgirl. But they didn't have the part with T in it. Are you saying the part with him in is on LM?
It loads slow sometimes and other times it's fine. I wouldn't worry about it for the current skins, but feel free to experiment with different ones.

Unfortunately no. I just watched the clips and there's only a very brief glimpse of him. (sorry if I sounded misleading before. I hadn't actually watched what I downloaded so I wasn't sure what was on it.)
