I think this would once again relate to our stance on maintaining the Oddworld ecsence at the Oddworld Forums. The reason we create our own styles stems back from when Sydney was still an Administrator here. He would create the styles, because they were always Oddworld themed, and made from scratch by himself. I'm sure we'd like to continue that practice.

I do, however, see your point. It would take off the extra load on Abe Babe's shoulders, but I believe doing something good first time around, saves more effort in the long run. We aren't a generic forum, and we don't want to use styles that many generic forums use.

I doubt I'll make the Oddworld Universe style available, as I believe it would encourage unfair competition between Oddworld fansites.
