I have noticed that there a lot of requests for skin but most have very little detail about what you want which makes it difficult to know what you want. Also i find the bigset pain with skinning is the research need to make your skin accurate so if you request a skin a few links to likely start places would be nice or a picture or 2.
It makes it easier for us and you would get your skin quicker and it would be near enough what you wanted.
I agree, though. People just say they want a skin and give one or two details. How can the skinner possibly know what the skin looks like when you only say "black with helmet"? Pictures if possible, plus more thorough descriptions, would be great.
