The time is nigh: Making the website look beautiful. Anyone is free to help in this endeavour. In fact, please do!
Here's what you have to do:
Make all of these things listed below. Colors must be done in HTML 6 digit codes. A helpful reference for that can be found here.
Logos have to be hosted on a URL. If you want, you can also make your own set of smilies and I DEFINITELY would recommend making your own folder icons. You know, the domo heads that change colors? Yup, those.
Anyone who submits automatically gets 50 domolians for doing so. If you get chosen to be the default skin, you get another 50 domolians. SWEET! That is a LOT! Unless you're me. I can't award prizes to myself.
But how will the winners be chosen? By a vote, of course! The admins will add your skin you crated to the list of skins people can choose. Then we all look at all the skins and pick our favorite and vote for them via a poll. You can vote for yourself, it just isn't very sportsmanship-liek. Well, here's the things you need. ANOTHER helpful guide to what all these mean can be found here.
