I'm not either. The fact that we are here pointing out facts means that we dare to die LOL! And I believe most who commented here just stands for their views. None is against anyone.

**& the point i disagree is that wishix didn't, like you said, gave a GOOD reason. some points were not needed, which might hurt one's dignity & makes one loses confidence, unecessarily. **
Yup those directing to "y this skin is sotd" I think is because before me, evi or wishix started any negative feedback, all was commenting that it's was great. So just 3 negative comments I don't think will be able to make her lose confidence so easily? Comon, She has 10-20 positive comments to cheer her up!!

hey pple, no war, ok?i believe blogskins is an avenue 4 us to find skins that suits our own tastes and to apply to our blogs. we try to respect each other's opinions and choices, ok? ^^

i vow i'm not going against you, i just don't like the hurtful comments that wishix had typed out mindlessly. even if the other party questioned her taste (which i know as that it is not very pleasant), she should just direct the answer back to her instead going one big round & showing how different her taste is by vending it on paperlove's skin.

yes i do agree, paperlove's skin might not be perfect & wishix's comments do make sense. i rated paperlove a (5 stars) not because i have lousy taste but i felt that maybe this 5 star could pull up her overall rating a little as it had been damaged behind. i won't say damage, but rated rather low behind. effort, its not like i'm giving her a full marks of 5 for her effort. but we should not only go for the quality, but regconise how much effort the person put in. if a person just slapped a picture over the skin, i won't give him/her any marks for effort. trust me, i'm not those ridiculous ones who give utterly ridiculous (5 stars). if you look around at the skin i rated, you will know. i'm quite frank. so please do not put your words in such a way that you get lousy top 15 rated skins just because of my ratings.

ok so you hate people rating 0.5 with a GOOD reason. For me, i hate people rate a 5 with fuking no reason. That's the reason why nowadays the skins are getting poorer and poorer. No one even DARE to say something true. Because you are afraid they will revenge.

i'm not afraid of them revenging or whatever. don't you find it pretty lame? if we have to live in a world of restrictions. sorry am not that type.

& the point i disagree is that wishix didn't, like you said, gave a GOOD reason. some points were not needed, which might hurt one's dignity & makes one loses confidence, unecessarily.

i do understand that paperlove also replied in a rather, unpleasant way to wishix but its not all of paperlove's fault. & of cause, i'm not saying all the faults lie in wishix.

i just hope to let people know that although quality matters alot, sometimes we really have to stop & think if our words encourage a person for the better (in this case, making better skins) or just make he/she self loses esteem. we don't have to go oh-so-realistic about those GOOD skins.

different people have different definitions of what's good & bad. this is like the question, who is to define beauty?. i think people should just stop questioning about each other's 'taste' or 'style' (whatever you name it). different people have their different styles.

if people rate this skin 5, you don't have to rate it a 5. [please dont add comments like they have low taste]

if people rate this skin 0.5, don't question him or her.

this will only invite nasty comments from both parties' mouths & causes more problems.

sorry if you think i'm going against you Ilovemanga, i'm not

Please, who make skin without putting in EFFORT? Does that mean that all skins deserves a 5? Then why is 0.5 there? Everyone gives 5 stars for their EFFORT, it makes 5 stars as worftless as u can never imagine.

But I agree at some of the points that you mention but I believe if stapledstarshine didn't ask "where is ur taste of class?" which obviously is trying to insult evi, as a person, she wouldn't say out something that unpleasant.

You commented because u feel that what wishix said was tooo "full of herself". But was wat she says totally make no sense? Indeed, I believe she should choose her words more carefully, but if paperlove didn't reply things like " it's understood that my skin don't work in FF" which when i saw it, i almost burst into flame too. ( not trying to drag paperlove in again, just trying to explain how it becomes like that)I dont think she will become so lost control.

If I were to direct this question to, I wonder how u will reply.

hey nice try. but the skin looks kinda square-ish to me. mayb you could have re- arranged the boxes? i dunno. the backgrounds kinda plain too. but otherwise good effort!

but i don't think this skin deserves a 0.5, she put in EFFORT. WTH. and did u read clearly what wishix said?!

wishix said:

(1 day ago)

How I rate the skin according to firefox (she didn't mention that it will runs in ff)

Creativity: 0/1
Originality: 0/1
Layout: 0/1
Readability: -0.5/1
Functionality: 1/1

I wonder how many of you think it's nice just becos it's sotd. I dun even know how come it's sotd.. (CAN YOU NOT DENY SHES BEING SACARSTIC? IF SHE JUST WANNA COMMENT SHE CAN LEAVE OUT THAT PART, ITS HURTING)

it's really an insult to those other better ones out there.
(HEY I THINK SHES THE ONE INSULTING KAY)

I totally agree with what Evi_fan say. For the same question, i would like to ask u, stapledstarshine, where is ur taste of class? But seeing that you give this a 5, it's obvious that urs are nowhere near the top.
(DOES THIS MEAN THAT IF SHE THINKS THIS SKIN IS UTTERLY HORRIBLE, IT MUST BE UTTERLY HORRIBLE?)

Oh and, beside asking us where our taste are, u should explain ur reason y this is good. I believe we have given enough y this is not.
(0.5 stars)

she's just going against the other skinner. if she didn't add those unecessary comments i wouldn't had commented on it. please, i talk sense. don't make yourself sound freaking ridiculous. even if you give an 1000 word essay on how this skin should just BANISH from this world, it doesn't deserve a 0.5.

DAMNIT.

Blogskins is a account to submit a skin and share with everyone.
Why does everyone get so tense up?.Its not like she choose herself to be on SOTD.
just leave her alone..

What you say is by far the most ridiculous. Because there are people like you, who don't rate skins according, which result in this "War" today. No one rate this skin down because it doesn't "suit their taste". Those who rated it down has stated clearly why. wishix didn't shut her ear. She actually wanted those who think that it's nice to share their views. But NONE do so. You say that giving 0.5 is stupid? They didn't just put SUX (0.5stars) Finish. Full stop. The end. They wrote a whole para to explain why.

ok so you hate people rating 0.5 with a GOOD reason. For me, i hate people rate a 5 with fuking no reason. That's the reason why nowadays the skins are getting poorer and poorer. No one even DARE to say something true. Because you are afraid they will revenge.

I use both FF and IE, and I hate those skinner who didn't even bother to dl FF and customise it for people like me. If you don't customise for FF, then AT LEAST state in your description and I won't even take alook at it. That only shows how much effort you put into that skin. You don't really think about the people using it.

I'll be so glad if people were as truthful as them to give me so much information. Just nice and cool doesn't help at all.

And NO ONE blames her for getting sotd.

You gave a 5, then TELL ME how is it good. WHY is it good.

IF you don't make skins to work for us, then WHO do you make for!? GHOST? DUH!

paperlove: I know you have a hard time on this.. but you dont have to apologise so many times.. it's getting scarcatic if you keep apologising.. What I say above is not pointing at you..

with all those chaos around, i really have to say something. wow i hate people who rate down skins fucking low just because it doesn't "suit their taste". it got sotd because its popular, & people rate it high. so maybe YOUR taste is, abnormal? & wth its not like she registered to be SOTD, blogskins just saw the potential in this skin. giving a ridiculous 0.5 & 3 stars is stupid. i mean, if you're so good at it, why not you make this perfect skin which everyone in blogskins will love? & paperlove already said the skin is done for her own pleasure. whether you want to rate it, fav it, download it, thats your problem. just because you have FF doesn't mean everyone have FF (just like you said people are switching to FF).

alright, you think she's self centered. but what about you?

me & my friends are mostly using IE, as far as i'm concern.

& blogskins doesn't have this rule saying you must state in your description clearly if this skin works in IE / FF.

but of cause, its always better to state it.

& who said we must make skins that work for you? totally ridiculous people.

although i agree that you should rate according to your favour, being a niceee person, please at least show some encouragement to encourage her to do better. instead of spitting out your words like she owed your money & her skin is the worst on earth. really.

okay, sorry.
but i really didnt meant it to resemble Tip's Iconlicious
so yeah.
sorry.

you people are just JEALOUS and EVIL.

honestly.
I think this skin, yes, seems a bit like Tips, but other skins with the same design have been popping up as well!
Nice skin anyway, sarah(:

Actually personally I think this theme is getting quite common, ever since Tips summited that skin, the one with the icons, a lot of people put up skins with the same sort of theme, model skins are not exactly original to begin with, let alone all these 'icons' stuff.

I think she did defend herself, and infact, overly protected herself.. that's y ppl think she's arrogant..

Oh, I hate the way she say" i am sorry wishix, but i think its pretty understood that all my skins do not work in ff." That means u r not thinking about ur audience. U know it's not easy to fit for both the browser. You could spent hours to correct that. It's the same as the image...

GUMMY.king: I am not trying to bring her skin now, since it's already sotd, there's no point taking it out or watever. I've pointed out my kind of views. So anyone who like this skins, could have supported her with their views.

Any views that make them think this worft a 5.(remember, that's how it became a sotd) You could have just confronted me by saying" I think small fonts are geniously beautiful. It fit the layout so much. The well hidden, hard to find links are sooo cute~ even though i cannot read, i could just try n try until i found the rite link cos I love to explore~~ Oh don't worry about me having a hard time reading, I always have a magnifying glass with me " (I'm sorry, just example.. i couldn't think of anything else..) Instead of saying "NICE!" =.="

summerpancakes:

What is this?
An account just created to raise the ratings a little bit? This is extremely lowly.

sarah
DONT BE EMO!
and shes not immature la its us who are
dont blame her for those rude comments
they're actually from us
yup and she's really a nice kid who doesnt defend herself
sooooo dont do stuff like this anymore
shes traumatised and she wants to go on a hiatus!
blame us for it not her ya :/

okay. can y'all all just stop putting paperlove's skin down. personally i feel that the skin is quite nice. yknow sarah cant choose if her skin gets sotd right? so why do y'all keep talking about why this skin was the sotd? i mean seriously i agree with heroine, sotd is jsut a title. if you think you know what a "real sotd" is, make a skin and make sure its a damn sotd lah.

she got an sotd cos people rate it 5, and it got to the top of the top 15 rated list. and people rate it 5 cos they think its good. it's common sense please. if you dont like it maybe others like it its all about preference. you cant get all you want and by the way, its an sotd for 19th march. if you freaking care so much about getting an sotd, go ahead you have like so many other days in the year 2007.

hah. if your skin is made on 19th march too, and you think it's actually 'meant' to be sotd, jsut freaking delete and resubmit it but thats damn childish.

okay.
i accept the fact that this skin is not good enough to be sotd.
in your opinion.
but im standing up for myself.
whatever you think.
i think this skin is pretty
and it doesnt dserve 0.5 stars even if this does NOT deserve sotd.
i cant choose sotd right?
ive even requested myles to take me off sotd.
SOTD IS JUST A LABEL

A LABEL.
i dont want the label.
so im going to tell everyone that THIS SKIN DOESNT WORK IN FIREFOX.
clear enough.

im done with this skin.
i guess my intuition got screwed that day.
but i still think it's pretty up till today.
and i think it deserves a 5 stars not cause of what i've done
but what i've put in.

paste a few pics?
YOU THINK IT'S SO EASY.
i had to colour the pictures so they look like they were blended even though they were detached.
guess nothing came out of my efforts.

so im trying to tell you that
I PUT ALOT OF EFFORT IN THIS. so dont you tell me
'just paste a few pics'

im not deleting this skin ever,
cause im not weak and im not going to care about how many stars you give me,
& i like it that way.

this is just plain.. i wonder how u got sotd.
just paste a few pics and some codings which isn't m.f friendly.
u deserve only
