I'm done with all the drama about what I put into this skin, and what I did not. Skin is removed. Message me for my custom. I'll be happy to give you it to test or once its finished...
I was thinking of making my own sounds anyways... Stay tuned for the change log.Sonez wrote:

I dunno if it's just me, but there doesn't seem to be a screenshot of actual gameplay? Like, hitting circles and stuff. Would be helpful
Yea but, for me that depends on the song...Kyou-kun wrote:
Wouldn't it be better to have larger numbers on the circles to make them more easily noticeable and countable? It also makes it easier to see which side of the slider is the start and which is the end.
Thanks. Your very mature.ziin wrote:
this looks like a bunch of random thrown together crap with no general theme. And you used the same picture twice.
There was no theme intended for this. It was simply something I came up with to read notes faster. Having something like a Touhou theme for osu is just stupid because you cant read the notes. There is too much commotion on the screen. But I do see your point that there are a lot of colors that clash. I'll be posting a change-log soon.MLGnom wrote:

And I agree with ziin. Skin doesn't have any general theme. It's just have few changed things and mostly they from default skin or someone's else. This doesn't even look descent. Lack of many things.
Think about some kind of theme instead of random crap. :<
that may be accepted [but i oppose to it]Kyou-kun wrote:
The people who complain about "theme" clearly don't understand the point of this skin. The point is not to have a particular theme, but to make reading notes easier. Cosmetics are not the purpose of this skin. In fact, the specific theme of the skin could simply be to be able to read notes more easily.

You basically took cookiezis skin and made it worse. It's harder to read overlapping notes due to you taking away the original skins transparency on the notes. Purple is probably not the most effective color for your cursor to be on black backgrounds. The spinner has a background you might aswell disable/remove that rather than just blur it if you are going purely for gameplay effectiveness, size reduction of the HP bar should also be done. You didn't even shrink the cursor.
The anime girl is not needed and serves only as a distraction during breaks, it also looks heavily distorted due to resizing. The overuse of blur filter effects also makes you question what is and isn't blurred. The purple also looks unnatural, it feels as if you've just lazily slapped a purple layer over everything.
It feels really budget overall, I give it a 3/10. I can't even steal any skin elements from it.

Thanks for the opinion. I actually only put this skin out because my friends said that it worked well for them because some of them are colorblind... They said that the purple makes it look gray, and the contrast blur alows them to be able to read the notes more easily... I will be making a custom colored Black and Oragne skin soon.Soly wrote:

Other skin with the Cyan Color Cursor was Cookiezi's... I'll be adding a change log and adding different color variations soon. Stay tuned. thanks...Espionage724 wrote:
Tried this skin earlier, looks pretty good. Maybe have multiple cursor colors as addons? Light blue would be nice (there was another skin that had a similar cursor that was light blue, but I can't recall the skin)

I just explained to you what's wrong with it.MOR wrote:
It is a Speed Reading Skin because of the fact that it has nothing on it. I tried to make it as simplistic as I could. That was the point of the skin. If you dislike it, just tell me what you think is wrong with it. Not a life story on how this ISN'T a Speed Reading Skin...
Thanks.
PS
Contact me for the skin I'm currently working on. A lot of stuff has changed...
Also, I didn't realize the circles aren't even translucent until Soly pointed it out. Come on. How is that supposed to be a "speed-reading" skin?This doesn't sound like a problem. More or less it sounds like your life story...
I didn't say anything about myself other than that I didn't realize something about the skin until it was pointed out to me.MOR wrote:

You can still make sure it has a constant theme while not touching gameplay elements. Having metallic looking selection tabs, fluffy cloud health bars, a Bart Simpson countdown and an animu girl pass/fall noise all in one skin but making sure the notes and spinners aren't distracting doesn't mean it's a good skin. Saying the extras don't count just because they don't add to the gameplay comes off as making an excuse for putting together a Frankenstein theme and not bothering to make it all seem like it fits together.Kyou-kun wrote:

I understand gameplay is the primary focus of the skin, but it doesn't mean everything else should be neglected.

Please read everything under DISCUSSION before posting these comments. I already know that Bikko created most of the elements in this skin, and if he wishes for it to be taken down, I will. But for now, it will be up just to try to help to community with readable skins rather than outlandish skins in my opinion.Nilsso wrote:
Did everyone who created these skins-elements allow u too use them? Didnt Bikko create the followpoint flower?
If u dont have the "go" from every creator of these elements, it should be taken down.
Lol. Bikko is not active anymore and will probly never see this...MOR wrote:

No I think ill pass. He probably doesn't care anymore, and if he did, it would take a month for him to reply. There would be no point in doing so, and also all of the skins are copy righted under osu![/quote]MOR wrote:

But it doesn't matter with a skin titled "Speed Reading Note Skin".WASSHOI wrote:
