Which of the three available forum skins do you use?  I described them as best as I could -- CoN3 has a black background, CoN4 has Edgar and Terra for its topic icons, and CoN5 has the giant picture of Terra floating at the top.  If you're still unsure you can go into your control panel and go to Account Options and check which skin you use there.

I jump back and forth but I'm currently using the CoN4 skin.

Your Control Panel -> Account Options.  It's hidden in the dark depths.  For those who haven't responded already, if you haven't tried one of the other skins, why not give them a try before you decide?

I've never found that feature before.  That's awesome.  But I still like the CoN5 the best, just because it's the easiest to look at.  CoN3 is too black, and CoN4 is too bright...CoN5 is a good mix.

I completely forgot this option exists in the profile settings. Way more options nowadays, too! Foolsglade is the only sensible choice, although I ultimately changed to Scanner.

1. Oh wow this is an old thread.

2. I've used Foolsglade for so long I think I've forgotten what the others look like.

3. No wonder I haven't posted in it. It hasn't been posted in since before I joined the site.

Now the list of skins is much larger but I use Persona Classic. It was the default option when I joined the website and I grew to associate the website with it over the years.

As a matter of fact, ever since I first watched Puella Magi Madoka Magica, I've been wanting to mention how much Homura Akemi (and to a lesser extent Sayaka Miki) reminds me of that design, as a means of persuading you folk to watch the show because it is so excellent, although you need to give it the opportunity to set itself up for a few episodes. Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to do so, or at least not until G.M.H. TheEvilEye conveniently resurrected this thread.

The resemblance to Homura really is uncanny. It's almost to the point where I'm tempted to write on Homura's shirt. If CoN didn't come first, I would be forced to assume that the website design was inspired by her. It's a real shame that this isn't a Madoka Magica fansite. I would love to see a mock-up of the webpage with Homura instead of Terra, but I suppose that was never meant to be.

Also, is Persona Classic any different from the original Persona 5 or is my mind just playing tricks on me?

Edit
I should check the dates instead of making assumptions. >_>

Glad to hear someone else loved that anime. I've been slowly forcing people I know to watch it until the hooks grab them and they watch the rest on their own. Usually, it's by the time they finish episode 3.

None of the skin names in the poll are present in the Account Options > Skins and Etc. drop-down menu.

I'm using something called "Skyglade." I'm not sure why I chose it, it's been a long time since I did.

Hmm, well since Neal's post here seems to indicatehe was not quite aware of them, perhaps those names did not quite exist when he made this thread . I remember reading one of our history pages regarding the page layouts a while ago, so based upon that, I think Neal was trying to describe Scanner as CoN 3, Aluminum as CoN 4 and Persona Classic as CoN 5. Maybe one of the moderators responsible for naming the themes can more solidly affirm this hypothesis and maybe even update the poll options (or make a new poll) to account for the options Neal did not list.

Skyglade was probably just chosen for you as the default skin in lieu of another preference. Skyglade is an updated version of Persona made for the website's fifteenth anniversary and made to replace it. It actually doesn't extremely very different from Persona classic, but it has a few differences like changing which character is on the top of the page with every refresh.

EvilEye resurrected this thread, not me. tongue.gif

Persona Classic? That's the forum style I used for many, many years, actually.

I don't really see any resemblance between Persona Classic (either on the forum or the main site) and Homura. Sayaka seems more like it because there's a lot of blue.

Now, the Scanner theme? Make the blue there purple, and keep the black, and that's more like Homura's colors.

Maybe you're thinking of Terra's pose? I dunno.

As for the show itself, I've watched it, and wasn't particularly impressed by the show. My favorite character by far is Homura Akemi, though. Kyouko Sakura is probably second and Sayaka Miki a close third. The other characters I didn't much care for, tbh.

If you want more thoughts on MadoMagi from me I can share them but I can get into arguments about it. tongue.gif
