Skins for the community

[tophneal]

We began discussing skinning for the PBP in another thread, and I thought it would be best to start a dedicated thread.

I'm going to get with the Pine team to see if they have any assets we can use to make a template for the PBP (and the logo file for those who want to rep their stuff.)

I have a few questions for the community, though, about what you'd like to see.

Would you prefer simpler or more ornate/vivid designs?

Do you prefer a wide or restricted use of colors? (Blacks/greys vs. colors)

Would you like to see skins for:

1. the lid only
2. the lid and palm rest plastic
3. as complete a skin as possible (lid, palm rest, bottom)

EDIT:
Another question I want to ask, so it can also be explored, is there a preference for gloss or matte? I can't guarantee a matte option, but I can look into it if there's enough interest.

I'm going to try and come up with some fun original designs in my spare time, but I want the community to have a chance to suggest the kind of things they want to see and are interested in. (Visual aids are a bonus, since a lot can be lost in translation putting the description of an appearance into words.)

EDIT 2: Unfortunately, the opportunity I had to get press time for these did not come to fruition, and it will take a serious investment on my part to secure a run elsewhere. For now, feel free to use the PDF templates I've shared in this thread to setup and commission your own skins.
