I think GS should release a new skin for basic (free) members. It would be slick and cool looking to bring a fresh look and approach to this site while on the forums. It isnt needed but would be highly appreciated.

Well I guess it wouldn't hurt as long as they added it for Plus & TA users as well.

However, being a free member I really don't think should get you extra choices on things. (No offense meant to any free GS users).

Quite so and none taken. If you want the good stuff, fork over the dough.

If they were to introduce a new skin it would probably be for paying members.

To be honest this site is already functional enough for basic users, Gamespot has to make money some way and i think to make the premium side of Gs more premium would be more of an option. If there are to be more skins they will be subscriber only.

Good idea, even though it's not a big deal to me.

You mean a new forum skin? The idea was brought up a long time ago to make the old forum skin an option to choose from,but it was never worked on. But,if the option was made and if it was for subscribers only,I'd go for it.

If you truly want a skin for the site, pay to be a member.

Free members of the site are basically what make the community what it is.

So people who pay money to Gamespot don't do anything? I think your statement is the exact opposite of reality.

This would probably make subscribers mad again. Remember what happened when basic members could finally post user videos? Well, nothing totally bad happened, but there were many disagreements and quarrels. The more stuff free members get, the more seldom subscriptions will become. I really agree with meischris.

A lot of us were upset about that because we thought that it was going to be a feature that was only for us.
I don't think more skins for everyone are necessary, but subscribers should get more skins.  (i.e.the look before the redesign)
