Per requests from fans, I've given Northeastern and Drexel the team skin treatment here. So when you guys play them heads up their fans are now local.

Is there any interest in skinning the main CAA board itself like the AAC, ACC, B1G, CUSA, MAC, Sun Belt, and SEC boards are done here? I mean at this point half the conference is already here but the general board is quiet. It seems like we already have all the ingredients for the general board to be here, all we need are a few point people to take the initiative and start posting on it.

If you skin it, they will come.

I am a Luddite. What does "skin treatment" mean?

Decorating the place up with team/conference specific colors, graphics, and names.

Compare this board (skinned) to The Lounge board (not).

While we're at it, any chance to change our skin to reflect our true colors?

Any thoughts on incorporating the new Tribe logo with the William and Mary swoosh below?

Is there a Pitino, Patrino influence here?

While it is fair use, it's close enough that if a .edu for whatever reason gets grumpy with CSN, they could make a stink in court that would be prohibitively expensive for me to fight. So part of Aurora is going to be a total purge site wide of official school logos. I'll probably re-introduce them though as emojis/smilies so they can be used in posts, which is a much stronger fair use case. I'm getting a graphic artists to come up with own our logos to use instead which still invoke the appropriate team specific feel / look.

But I will definitely make a go of tweaking the colors with Aurora. Part of Aurora will be a team skin generator where I just feed in colors and BOOM out pops a skin. So it'll be really REALLY easy for me to tweak skins come next year.

True Tribe colors are Green Gold and the oft forgotten Silver !
