Well, I've slacked off from my exam preparation and spent a few hours to work on this forum style. I guess I'm just too excited to try experimenting with Frienger colour scheme and I'm not sure if this forum style really live up to its expectation. 
I used Raid forum style as a base instead of NoseBleed because I'm thinking it's getting kinda old if I keep using the NoseBleed style. Since this is my first time modifying Raid it takes me way longer than I anticipated. Almost up to 5 hours of working, trying to change colours and to make sure everything matches etc. I'm sorta a perfectionist so it takes forever to get the feeling right. Still, I must say the current design is still not up to the standard. 
Still, I hope you guys like this new forum theme despite what I have just said.  If you have any suggestion to improve the current design feel free to tell me here. I used dashed line to separate between topics because some members expressed it's very hard to read when there's no border sepearting each topic. I hope this works better for those people now.
btw, because of the red dashed line, the roll over and new posting colour for each topic doesn't really match with the border. If you have any idea to improve that, you might want to give your 2 cents here. If you're not bothered with that and think it looks kinda cool that way, then it's nice to hear too. 
This forum style continues the rather plain and simple tradition I've been doing so far. I'm a minimalist lover so I hope you find design like this pleasant to your eyes too.  This forum style uses "Lucida Grande" as its default font and "Arial" as an alternative. If your computer doesnt' have "Lucida Grande" installed, I highly recommend you to download this awesome font (it's the default MacOSX system font) and install it following these instruction:
- Extract the font
- Copy the extracted font
- Go to
 \WINDOWS\Fonts
- Paste the font
I also changed the emoticons to mixed colour set due to the ranger theme of Frienger. Hopefully this colourful emoticon set will spice up your day everytime you visit Channel-Ai. 
I have an exam tomorrow so I must go now. I've read about the Channel-Ai-nniversary thing kikubelle posted (sorry I haven't replied) and I thought maybe I should leave this forum style to that day. Anyway, I'm too eager to show my work and I'm sure there will be something else happening on that day for you guys to anticipate and enjoy. For now, celebrating the release of "Frienger" on April 12, I present you the Frienger forum style!  |

I love this theme! *__* I'm so obsessed with Frienger's colour scheme heh. I've been using green and pink so much myself, I love how they used my fav. colours~ This theme definitely did NOT dissapoint me.  3 I was just browsing and boom! everything changed, Yay~ Everything is easy to read and it's nice that Eyn took the borders/separater suggestion~ The only thing is that the super cute rangers are not included in this theme.  But I guess too much on a layout would make it look messy.
I like the new coloured smilies too. They look more fun and matches the bright colours of this theme. |

Im not dissapointed,
i like the color theme and the whole theme is better, then previous one where you used raid.
I mean the one what was used before this new layout. New smilies are also good add gives you that warm spring feeling!
nice job eyn.
and the borders are done better then on the previous one. Only think i was hoping that you would been using Nosebleed but i guess i can get used with this. So afterall this is better then the previous one. |

| I think this theme is pretty great! It makes the forum look new and clean..and I could get used to this! I'm not bothered by the red dash line at all, so that's not a problem. It's easier to find things with this new theme, and Eyn deserves a round of applause for his hard work! |

| It's cute! ^^ I don't love it, however I don't hate it. My eyes hurt from looking at it and I can't find a thing, but maybe that's just me. Good job though eyn! And I love the emoticons hahaha. |

eyn! This is my absolute FAVORITE theme so far. I ADORE it. But what's up with the smilies? How come this one -->  is red and this one --)  is blue and the others are orange?
I'm waiting on a theme with green smileys. If that one is prettier than this one, that'll be the only time I'll change it. XD Awesome work.
Yet, you should be studying...work work and study hard~!
EDIT: Ha ha, didn't notice that you said emoticons were mixed. But why 2 only? Why no green? |

Wow, I am sooo in love with the emoticons color!!
The new theme looks really good too  Thank you so much for your work on this, eyn! I think I will keep this for a long time
I can't really think of any way to suggest a fix or anything, layouts are not my forte XD I think it is so fine how it is already I appreciate you spent your time to make this. |

nice surprise, i was really thinking that eyn would probably start a new theme based on frienger on the 13th considering its the 1st channel ai-nniversary and that frienger comes out on the 12th, sorta kill two birds with one stone.
but this is a pleasant surprise indeed. i can't say i love it, but i don't hate it either, its kinda cool. but ill wait till i can change it back to love cook which is my absolute fav skin on this forum. until then, i will enjoy the fresh value of this skin and a few days of ai's super kawaii scooter picture will be fun im guessing.
eyn, otsukare!!

to me, i think the colors are too soft so everything looks too far apart
also, the green bars at the top are so random! but i find that it is refreshing from the other forum styles |

| This new layout is so cute! It'll take me a little to get used to the non-NoseBleed style and the brightness, but it's just what we need for the spring! Thanks, eyn and Ai-chan! |

I kindda like this new theme
for the background I love how you put the 2 bright greens on the tops and then light green
for the forum table, I like the pink color you used here
but if you reverse the background color between member info.s and posts it'd look better |
