VaBeachGuy 12 Posted April 15, 2004 How important is the skin to the atmosphere of the board? Not counting the Board Banners, but how important is the other elements of the skin to your poeting experience? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angela 1 Posted April 15, 2004 I like the whole thing I love the stars and the colour scheme. I also love the people here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Shirt Volunteer 0 Posted April 15, 2004 It doesn't matter to me at all, though it's nice. The posts are the most important and I think too many extras can get in the way. The ratio of posts in Trek forums compared to non-Trek seems to be changing in favour of non-Trek these days. I'm not sure this is a good thing, but some people seem to be enjoying those discussions. I do, too, on occasion, but not everyday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 8 Posted April 15, 2004 I voted very important since it's what drew me to this site in the first place and I wanted a Trek site that looked like a Trek site. However, I feel that this board is becoming less of a Trek site and more of a current events, political, off-topic type board so maybe the Trek-inspired skin isn't as important anymore, at least to the majority of the membership.

removed 0 Posted April 15, 2004 (edited) I say it is very important. A bland board is no fun. It's aesthetically. pleasing. Edited April 15, 2004 by bysty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fenriz275 0 Posted April 15, 2004 I like it and I think it gives the board a unique feel as opposed to a lot of the generic boards out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RikerChick 5 Posted April 15, 2004 I put very important. It really gives a good feeling to the board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nemesis 0 Posted April 15, 2004 I think you just put pictures of Mandy (RC) all over the board. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stelfan 0 Posted April 15, 2004 I like the layout of the forums, but it's not very important to me.. As long as it looks good it doesn't have to be anything special.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted April 15, 2004 It's Very Important especially for STF's. Ours is totally unique on the web. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mj 7 Posted April 16, 2004 Very Important. I love the stars. When I log in they are the first thing I see and I know that I am where I intended to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Phaserman 0 Posted April 16, 2004 it's definately important, it shows that this isn't a board dedicated to something like Jaws. and I have a similar background pattern on my board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Jean-Luc Picard 1 Posted April 16, 2004 Very Important  It's what makes STF unique. I think it should remain Star Trek like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Phaserman 0 Posted April 16, 2004 it just wouldn't be right if this place was stuck with the bland InvisionBlue skin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BakulaBabe 2 Posted April 16, 2004 Very important. The way a site looks creates the first impression a visitor gets, and this looks like a site devoted to Star Trek, rather than just another message board. Hope that makes sense. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delta 0 Posted April 16, 2004 I think it's very important. When I first came here I followed a link from another site. When STF.net loaded I thought wow this site looks really great I must look around. :) I love it because it's so Star Trek and I love almost everything Star Trek. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeybear 0 Posted April 16, 2004 (edited) star trek is what brought us together, and the skin, coupled with our magnanimous subject matter, show who we are - not just a bunch o'Kirk lovers, ya know??? :( Edited April 16, 2004 by joeybear Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thinkoutofthebox 0 Posted April 17, 2004 (edited) I voted somewhat important because I would come here with or without the star trek themed atmosphere, which I enjoy very much. Edited April 17, 2004 by thinkoutofthebox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
