Please, change taiko-bar-right-glow.png to anything less contrasting and damaging for our eyes.

Default skin is good enough to play taiko but the fact kiai toggles the current vivid pink taiko-bar-right-glow.png is pretty annoying.

Notice it is a lot brighter than Taiko no Tatsujin's Go-Go Time lane, and also it is horizontally inverted, as the brighter part is located near the judgement line in osu!taiko making it difficult to read.

Since this is pretty easy to achieve I hope my request is taken in consideration. (I am not even sure if this is the right place to ask for it, though)

Are you for real? lol... If I didn't know that was possible I wouldn't even know what is the filename of the specific part of the skin that has to be changed

And no, custom skins are never a solution because the main issue here is that the default is extremely flashy and causes eye strain.

Still waiting...

It very unlickly that this request will do anything. The last change to the default skin is ages ago. Just use a custom skin. You may find that it is to distracting, but others may like it. You will never be able to have a skin that everyone is satisfied with. Someone will always have an oppinion that is against e.g. certain designs.

why don't you just turn down the brightness on your computer?

Because then everything else would be to dark?

Skinning exists for a reason. Don't like it? Replace it.

There is an issue with a default skin being too eye-straining, it needs to be fixed, I have never used default skin to be honest, but I noticed kiai sections are almost unplayable with default skin, which, guess what? It is what beginners use to play!
I never stated that """"I""""" didn't """"like"""""" it, I think it is a problem for new players, it is a problem with the game. Come on, it's just changing the dim from a file and improving the experience of people who don't know/can't download or make custom skins.

You can skin out the flashy-ness. I changed my lane to be black all the time:

taiko-bar-right.png: https://i.imgur.com/R58LsM8.png
taiko-bar-right-glow.png: https://i.imgur.com/35kfUiW.png

^ rename the files to have the names I provided on the left and put these into your skin.ini folder. If you don't see ".png" at the end of the name of the image you downloaded, then ignore it when renaming the file.

For reference, here is the entire list of what is skinnable: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing

No. My request was pretty concise and understandable: "Please change Taiko default skin's taiko-bar-right-glow" .

If you can't do anything about it please don't reply, I appreciate the fact you are trying to help, but it has nothing to do with what I was asking for:
I'm willing for someone in the osu!staff to check this out.

If it makes you feel any better, osu!lazer has revamped UI and taiko stuff:
