The good future Stardust style is far enough along to not have a bunch of broken images. Now the "Pick A Skin" window actually has a point! XD Note that you have to log in (or register first) to be able to use it, and I haven't really set it up on the forum yet so all that's different there is the background.

Any opinions on what color the now-black boxes and the text should be? I don't think the black box background goes with it very well, so I'll probably change it to something like grey.

Update (Monday @ 2:26AM CST): Not just one, but TWO brand-new styles! What a deal! The bad future kinda clashes though, with all the green and red/pink, so I'll probably tone it down some. Or maybe the bad skin's supposed to clash... :P

Update (Tuesday @ 1:59AM CST): The quartet of Stardust styles is now complete with the Past style.

Make it a dark purple for boxes in Good Future.  I'm using Bad Future right now, and it can stay black.

Perhaps with the skin, include a checkbox for "Play Music"?  Default would be off, of course, but turn it on to hear a looping track depending on which themne you use.  I don't know what would make it functional--would a 1x1 frame in the lower right of the page work for that purpose?

Bad Future = Good :P

Its nice to have the choice but I think Bad Future looks the best out of those...

Agreed on both points.

Well, it'd have to be a one pixel column or row spanning frame - aside from that... erm... I have no idea, some sort of embedded media I assume?

The new ones cool, but I cant see the bottom of the castle, how do I change my display settings so I can?

You can increase your screen resolution through Control Panel -> Display -> Settings, or you can just see it alone if you only wanna know what it looks like. None of the new backgrounds are finished - I've done some editing to the Past one to take out the more simple and egregriously annoying pieces of road (in front of the black/blue part), and sooner or later I'll edit all the blocks out of all three new backgrounds, and maybe chop the top off of the Past one, as there's quite a bit of mostly empty stuff. The game itself considers both the road and the background part of the same layer, so I have to reconstruct what I think would look best behind it.
