If y'all haven't seen Absinthe's forum lately then you're missing out! I was attempting to do some advertising today and I came across it. It was insanely gorgeous!

 

 

Wow thats so funny  I was going to say that exact same thing. Absinthe's site is pretty cool.

Haha! Right? I wish I had the time to learn more than just how to edit colors and fonts and actually build a skin. Seraphina is pretty freaking talented!

Yeah,  I am so jealous of all the developers and designers. I wish I had half the talent that they have. At 45 years old I have just started trying to learn but its a struggle  HAHA

I'm envous of the talent all of you coders and design people have. I really am. Your creations always floor me. I can't do anything beyond minor things such as color alterations.  Ulla and the skins they have created for Event Horizon have always wowed me though, even though they have usually been light and I tend to love dark and grungy asethetics.  There is another I've always liked too, an original supernatural site called Moon Called. The modifications they've made to their skin despite it being a premade one are beautiful.  All the little extras I just really love.

I have a sort of love-hate with jcink skin designers. For reference I admin a site on MyBB, which are often less "fancy", "animated", and dare I say "edgy" than a lot of Jcink skins.

I really do envy people that create the super fancy and detailed Jcink skins, they really do make me very happy. But the reason why I also have a hate relationship is because they often border into being just *too* much. Too many animations and fancy features, too many images and borders everywhere, etc.

 

In general I struggle with hating everything I create, so I'm always jelly when I see a really nice design haha.

DON'T HATE YOUR SKINS. I was actually coming here to say I LOVE the Blood and Bone skin!

Hands down Absinthe.  The site has a really archaic feel the the skin just fits - admittedly I could not do it LOL

Y'all legit just made my day reading these comments... it took me a year of getting frustrated with flaky skin coders to finally give up and do it myself...  I dunno if I could ever repeat it... lol.  

I've had a couple sites copy the layouts and design elements lately without giving credit and it's beyond frustrating to see.  But this just gave me warm fuzzies

all Ulla's themes for Event Horizon are life. So pretty, so organized, so dope, so colorful. Love their skinning and styling! Their stuff is such an inspiration!

I wasn't expecting to see people mention me in this thread, but I'm so very very flattered by this. I often struggle with feeling inadequate when there are so many talented coders in the hobby, but I also imagine that's a very common thing to feel. This definitely was warming to read, so thank you for making my day.

HARD CORE Agree with Absinthe's skin being just ;owskdfpowiefpowkeoprfkwef. It's unf. Yes. Unf.

 

Moon RP is actually what inspired me to do a light/dark toggle mode for my site! I simply adored that feature.

I've actually been a huge fan of the Scions of Terre D'Ange website for... gosh, a year now?

 

I stalk it, all the time, just to see what new features or code snippets have been implemented. I like to say I am not a visual person, but sometimes things give you fanny flutters and its perfectly lovely. 🤣 I also love things that are super modern, or linear and lovely to my engineer brain.

 

In that same vein, there's a brand new star wars website out with a GORGEOUS skin (I am a huge minimalist and like things clean and simple and concise and precise and easy-to-read, regardless of mobile or desktop formatting) - so I think my second favorite is imprinted: a star wars story. Every time I visit it, I get the urge to join the discord just to tell their admin that.

 ELEUTHERIA's skins always make me swoon. Seraphina was a peach to talk to briefly about permission to use some formats for inspiration.

A new site on a soft open I stumbled on yesterday, Valiant Hearts, is beautiful. ❤️ I really appreciate the work they’ve put into it.

oh my goodness! Literally everyone's sites! This is all new for me and I'm constantly blown away by how pretty everyone's sites are. The ones that stand out for me most are Absinthe, Blood & Bone and Bloodology. So pretty!
