Basically implement a Osu!Direct-like interface in-game where you can browse skins that can be created by anyone like beatmaps.
The process would be pretty much the same as downloading a beatmap through osu!direct, except that when you click the skin, It'd have a preview sample of the most important elements (playfield as background then the cursor, 300s, circles, spinners...)
You'd click on top rated, most downloaded, etc. to find the most popular ones... It'd replace the hassle of going on the forums, download, unzip, etc.
I think It'd be awesome, specially if you're a bit lazy like myself. It'd also create a centralised and neat platform for sharing skins ( besides the forum obviously).

It could also be a new Supporter-only feature? Adding value to the subscription...

Tell me what you think!

This would be great supporter feature, I would like to give support but I don't have any votes left :c

Ok, heres a problem:
The previev would require you to DL all these images already, without DLed data no previev.
Without previev the entire suggestion goes moot because you might aswell just look on the forums then.

The server would generate a low res preview of each skin's elements upon submission? Or it would just link to a video on youtube for a nice preview. I still think it's a feasible idea if there was a way to showcase/preview the skin effectively "on the spot"... I see great value in a tool like this but I understand that for now, it might very well not be a priority!

It would be neat though! Oh so neat :)

I'm 101% this has been suggested many times before. And i'm 202% sure I've said this will happen one day, especially since the skin section is decommissioned from the updater now.

So have I!
But I have a feeling Half Life 3 will be confirmed before this possible new feature is even announced! :)

Yeah that was possibly a bit exaggerated...
Take it as motivation I guess? ;)

Sorry if I'm Necroposting this.

I think this will give anybody with "Osu! Supporter" a wide range of skins to not only test, but also find his/her favorite skin easily.
