Hello SOS Members:

Just wanted to let everyone know that we have FINALLY settled on some new skins. We hope everyone will get used to either the "Impression" skin or the soon to be added "Denim" skin.

The license for our "Aqua Essence" skin will be running out soon and though we're sad to see it go, those of us addicted to the pretty need to find a new skin :lol:

In other news

THE BLOGS ARE FIXED!!! Yeah I know I broke it over the summer. Sorry it was never fixed. Now they are, lol. Hopefully we can get our fan fic community back up and running. Even I'm coming out of "retirement" to write some fics! All fan fics will have placement on our extras section of SoapOperaSource.com.

We also have some other news coming up, including some news on our fan response poll (which is 99.9% COMPLETE)

I didn't even realize we had different skins.

I love the Deviant one. Man it is beautiful.

Oh *DAMN*! :P :lol:

Well, SOS has many beautiful skins, so I'm sure I'll be able to find something else. New year, new skin! :D

And I really should try to post LIS here(tried once and just sorta stopped), or just start a blog! I'll probably do one or the other!

Awww I liked the banners the other skin had with the various soap couples and whatnot :(
"Kendall and Zach? They're untouchable. Ok? They take the vow 'through good times and bad' to a whole new level. I mean, they've been through comas and affairs and tornados and bomb shelters...and rogue lesbian kisses. Any crisis you can imagine. I am telling you, nothing comes between Kendall and Zach. Nothing. Not even when they're apart. He's not alone. All right? She is there with him. Maybe not physically, but she's there all the same. They're inseparable, ok? Every single thing he does, every decision he makes is either for or about Kendall."- Tad Martin 8/25/09

I like this one, but I think the font should be darker, cause it kind of blends in with the skin color.........

I know it's still a work in progress but the banner is stretching the pages again making it hard to read posts and it stretches the main page, that I have to scroll to the right to see current threads

What size is your monitor? I'll resize the banners to fit that.

UPDATE:

* Changed color of the text to black. I can make it slightly bigger if people want

* Working on resized banners

This is really nice. The font a little bigger would be great for me.

I made it bigger. I'm also trying to rework the black text. It doesn't look right IMO. :ermm:

I have NO idea LOL. I bought this computer from my brother, he would know.

How you had them before the switch to this skin was great once you resized them :)
