I use a customized skin cause it give me a feeling that's my game ! because the game becomes more personal when u custom ur own skin x)

Can someone give me a nice clean skin not far from the default skin?

I don't use a skin but I wanna edit some assets; and it seems you need to use a skin for that, right?

Edit: Oh my god. I had no idea that the folder for the default skin was 'User'. Wow. OK then!~

I don't even know how to make a skin but I'm very comfortable with Azer's skin.

I used to play with my customized skin which actually started from wario ware skin but changed alot of the time, and even did my own skin on this p/2917930#p2917930 .
But now i use default skin since 2 months ago since it doesnt affect gameplay at any shape or form for me. I am playing as well as i used to without much difference. Not even insibile 300s xD

"A skin downloaded from the website or updater" I use it for taiko :3

A friend customized an HD skin then shared with me. Not uploaded on web.

I mostly play with the default skin, because i think i can only play with it. xD
Skins are nice for variety for me. ^^

I use three different skins:

1. A custom made one that I created from scratch. It was designed and optimised for AR10.33 and higher.

2. Narrill's older skin for HR with some added customization.

3. A "competitive skin" that is just a mixture of several other players skins like Dsan's, Azer's, Xilver's, Kaoru's, etc.

The only time i use the default skin is when i am modding or editing a beatmap xD

I use default skin, since I already comfortable with it and I like the design already.
I tend to play much worse when I use a custom skin, so I rather avoid it all together.
Deva
I use heavily modified skin because i failed to find a skin that i actually like.

The default skin hurts my eyes when playing Taiko ;_;

Sometimes custom skins and skins from the site make it more difficult to play by having a cursor which tends to blend in with backgrounds, and having hit scores (50, 100, 300, etc.) which are so big that they interfere with visibility, not to mention that some of them are kinda flashy. The default doesn't cause any problems for me so I just stick with that.

I use my own skin, Spectrum 2. Check my sig, it's sik nasty

i use a heavily modified skin of Dakkychan (RIP) link
Wind_14
I mostly use default for osu!, CtB, and taiko. but i use a modified o2jam skin made by ecafree2 for mania, since the column size and colour isn't good (idk how to change it).
Zuikaku
The question is: Is the main purpose of a skin to make the game look better - or to make it simple? 8-)
Jean barrios
i usually like to mix skins that i downloaded, because i like some textures from that skin, and it's the same with other skin, either way, i end up mixing things anyway lol.

Default skin with follow points from ShigeHDHR and transparent slider end

Currently using a combination of Harmony and WilchQ's skin

Custom Transparent skin user here :)

Anyway, my only issue with a skin is its hitsound and transparency for smooth play. Like, I get comfortable hitting those circles with a nc hitsound and get comfortable reading the map with transoarent sliders. Somethin like those.

I use skins that don't take to much focus like Luminous (v2) (link, https://osuskins.info/skin?s=2474). IT doesn't have any numbers in the circles and that does have pro's and con's. The pro's is as i said before it doesn't take much focus and that when ever you get a miss, 50, 100 or a 300 it isn't distracting and in your face but the con's are that I really like jump maps but sometimes I become confused with the order of the circles. If i would change the default skin I would make the colors less vivid and the miss's, 50's, 100's and 300's less distracting.

imo rrtyui's skin is the best

I find the updater's skins to be garbage (no offence), but i feel that way about any over decorated skin.
dude, you are [b]SO FREAKING TRUE[b]
I really think those skins are impossible to read.

Nice to see someone with the same opinions as me

I use one a friend made for me using a bunch of other skins.

i play with two custom skins: one reddish-pink, and the other one is a kind of blue you'd see in a rafis skin. this is primarily to affect how i play, since red scientifically enhances focus and aggression, while blue suggests a more passive and calm sensation. the skins themselves are not by any means perfect, especially the standard mode, but it is fixable.


i'm also too lazy to add taiko to my red skin.
mariojudah
I'll play with anything so long as the cursor looks good and there's no sliderend circle lol.

The original skin is simply too bright to use competitively, it is very distracting but also skin downloading can be made easier. there should be a section on the top ribbon specifically for skins

Me too, and the reason for keeping default skin is to prevent dependence on custom skin.

I use DDM's skin, its really good though.

default skin is bad
there is too much particles and balls and stuff
just run a tech map on it
u will see...
epic man 2
I use a skin called "DYSSODIA" for Mania in general, it helps me to read the map as clear as it is since it's hard to read with the default skin.. For me, of course.

It mainly works in 4K, any other key modes above 4K it will have a bar on one column while other columns are
circles.
