i think that if the designer did take a request and fulfill it, he or she should get something for it... i mean, not a lot of people have a lot of time to spare these days.

I'm unclear with what you're asking, but I'm hoping I am understanding correctly. That is up to the staff to decide. I'm just suggesting, if you guys don't want it, don't do it. |

Well, if this forum hypothetically does get made, will the requests be individual or for CB? Meaning that if a designer decides to fulfill the skin requester's request, they MUST submit it to CB. I don't think any of the staff has seen this yet, but that's for my personal preference. |

I don't think any of the staff has seen this yet, but that's for my personal preference. If you guys hypothetically decide to make a request forum, it will depend on if you all lean toward a 'looser, all designers for themselves' structure or a 'beneficial for cB, more strict' structure. The loose structure would allow minimal moderating, and basically just letting designers take their pick. Like the classifieds section on a newspaper. If you take the latter structure, it would be much more work to moderate and control the forum, and then getting the skins and posting them up. But the rights would belong to cB, which would be beneficial, but I think it would just be another xanga Skins forum. |

So i don't think a mod would just on the spree make a new forum. Maybe they have those crazy procedures where 2 admins have to type in a password at the same time.  Why are you asking anyways?? |

That would be nice...
It's annoying getting PMs and stuff...asking for requests when you put on your signature that you don't want any. :[ |

if you make a request forum too many people will be requesting and not enough people will be designing. and plus when someone designs a skin for you, who`s to say you will actually like the skin they designed? and if you don`t, then it was just a waste of time for the designer to make it. why don`t you just make a skin yourself or just look through the skins forum since there are plenty of good skins already made and ready to use there. also, there are specific xanga sites that take requests on skins, banners, icons, and etc so go find those sites and request there.

I think this is an awesome idea.
If we put up the right rules...it can work. People shouldn't be allowed to request layouts for JUST themselves. They can request for ideas. Like, a layout featuring a specific person/place/thing, with or without sidebars, full-screen or boxed, etc. Not too many details. Just the sort of stuff that you look for when you're choosing a layout. As for chaos...hey, the Lounge is filled with a whole bunch of topics. I dunno, but when I first looked around here, it looked like chaos. Obviously, not everyone will follow the rules..we'll get repeats, and people'll spam, etc. The forum can be divided...like, one topic for celeb layouts, one for anime, one for landscape-y layouts, etc. Another one for comments. It'll save on spam. o.O This is a good idea...not just for designers, but for people looking for designs. There're soo many repeats done...same stuff... If someone who's not a designer has a new idea, it'll be a good way to get the idea out. |

that's...interesting. if designers have stuff like i'm not taking any requests or something, then who will take the requests? if there is a request forum, i'm pretty sure that it will be overflowing with a million requests. if they don't take requests, then others will learn to become a designer, and that's good.

And when someone's request isn't fulfilled? They'll continually post in the topic, complaining, "WHY ISN'T ANYONE MAKING MY SKIN?!" *Sniff*

50% good idea, 50% bad idea. Helps people out in one hand but in the other there will just be a lot of spam.

I think it is a good idea. The amount of PM's the designers usually get will lessen. But like what Kathleen said, there will be more topics of complaining people wanting their requests to be fulfilled.
