Ehren Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 I've recently finished with this basic mock-up of a new skin which will be coded for 3.1.x.. If anyone has suggestions for a good name for the skin which isn't corny or lame, then feel free to let me know. I usually struggle to think of something decent that reflects the design of the skin. If your suggestion gets chosen, I'm happy to give you a free copy of the skin. Any suggestions for improvements to the skin are also welcome Keep in mind it's just a mock-up, so not all features (sidebar, footer, stats, etc) are shown - they'll be included in the coded version.
vBB Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 Will it be for 3.1 version? Any chances to see it in brown-elegant colours? This skin is amazing, and I would love to see it in brown Than, I will buy it. In my huble opinion it should be called (choose the best ) : Queen BlueStrap Smarty Kibira <- my favourite one
dessas Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 Hello Ehren... You are making a great skin, again. It looks wonderful... I think we can call that skin "iDenim" or something like that???

Ehren Posted May 31, 2010 Author Posted May 31, 2010 Thanks for the suggestions so far There's a different skin coming out which I already called "Denim".. it is based slightly on the 2.3.x skin with the same name, but ironically doesn't have any denim textures in the 3.x version. I generally prefer names which don't have colours in them (unless the colour is a suffix of the name like Carbon Blue, Carbon Red, etc). It's pretty tough thinking for a name for this skin though - it wasn't really based on any texture or theme so there's nothing to revolve the name around.
vBB Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 So Choose: "Kibira" BTW. Any chances to see it in brown-elegant colours? ?
Alec Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Looks nice, will it have color choices like your more recent skins. Hmm... Maybe green?
Fishfish0001 Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Aqua Marine (have a fish background ) Aquarius "My Blue Skin" 1
nodle Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 How about "Jupiter"? Or "Kyanos"? It was a name used in Ancient Greek to refer to dark blue tile. "Sapphire" Or "Bleu", which came from an Old French word meaning "Blue" But awesome work so far as always Ehren! 2
Ehren Posted June 1, 2010 Author Posted June 1, 2010 Different colour versions may come depending on the popularity of the above version. Kibira, Jupiter and Kyanos are pretty cool. While they don't essentially reflect anything in the skin, they're pretty mysterious names which would be suitable for this skin in my opinion. There have also been some good suggestions over on the IPS forums, but I'm happy to give out a few skins if good names come through. Similar competitions might come around for other skins if I can't come up with anything appropriate.
yoshiteru Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 I liked Denim. I also think maybe Corduroy might be a good name for it.
Sourliberty Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 Wow, very nice Ehren. My suggestions: Jeans Vintage Vintage Strip Blue Threads Needles & Threads Casual Blue Tones Journals I personally think the title "Vintage" would be most appropriate. Cheers and all the best.
TheRevTastic Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 All of the ones I said at the IPS Forums, Novan, Imperial, Blue Bash, Blue Dash, Dasher, Inline / In-Line, vivacity, Tobain, Bantio, Levi.
Impaler Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 - Blue Moon - Leviathan - Tsunami - Tidal wave - Jura (means sea) - Blue Thunder - Blues - Aquatica My contest entries BTW kibira in my language means "a bucket" in a female gender LOL
yoshiteru Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 Wow, very nice Ehren. My suggestions: Jeans Vintage Vintage Strip Blue Threads Needles & Threads Casual Blue Tones Journals I personally think the title "Vintage" would be most appropriate. Cheers and all the best. I like the Jeans and Vintage idea of yours. I think anything texture or fabric related is cool for this one. and lulz at the kibira being a bucket.
dessas Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 Més que un Skin... Terciopelo... Velluto... Shammy... Suede... Patiska... Machka... Kiwi... Cecosfer...
Ehren Posted June 7, 2010 Author Posted June 7, 2010 I might choose a few and use those names on different skins. It's pretty tough to choose just one. The name will be chosen when the skin is ready to be coded.
