i use a default skinn called "grey". normally i used dark grey but i set the brightness of my 27" from 95 to 15. if the brightness is too high my eyes get stressed every second but the skin darkgrey was fine. now the grey skin is perfect for me. with clip colours like orange, yellow or something like that it looks really nice. your green skin is really really ugly :D

dont know what i should tell you but if your eyes are not so good its important that you set up your monitor the right way. play with the brightness! if its too dark your eyes get stressed as well when its to high.

I've tried a lot of skins. most of the ones I've downloaded started to annoy me after a while. now I'm mostly using the "tobacco" one, which I think is part of the default package...

The default skin is a win.

Hi Forum,


i decided to share my personal skin with this community.

Here you go.

Have fun with it. It´s relaxing for the eyes and not too aggressive with all needed colours.

Cheers,

Daniel

I've become quite happy with DarkGray. Makes the bright colors and white transport line pop out really well. Kind of has that Logic 7 look IMO which is a lot nicer than the washed out default gray or Logic 8 look.

I like some of the skins made by Monolake (6th post down):

Also like Midnight & Dark Grey.

I customize existing skins & make my own with this:

"Dublin", it's not on the web that I know of anymore.
Womana, a user here made it. that and the "London" one are both good.
