A Skin is the appearance of a website or interface which are often interchangable down to their layout.

Site Skin List

  • New MFGG - The default skin for MFGG 2.0. Images were created by Thunder Dragon, and the skin was created by Techokami. It is a general Mario theme but still relates to the classic skin.
  • MFGG Classic - A skin based on MFGG 1.0. It uses the original images made by Kritter, along with a fairly similar colour scheme.

Forum Skin List

  • MFGG Default (2003-2008) - Blue-purpleish look. This is the original Skin used for MFGG, and the colours, images and general layout all harken back to the second incarnation of the Ezboard forums, which used a similar colour scheme. This colour scheme was created by Kritter, to fit with his new design of the site, and the current MFGG Default skin uses images created by Kritter, which have stuck around since those original days, except for the new logo which was created more recently.
  • Fireflower - Black and red color-schemed skin themed on fiery ideas and objects from the Mushroom Kingdom, such as Fireflowers and Bowser.*
  • Winter Blue. Similar to the default skin, except darker. This skin boasts a header adorned with Christmas tree lights and a banner depicting a Super Mario World 2-styled mountain.
  • Tropical Splash. Yellow/blue, and the background is beach-like. Based on summer-type ideas. The colors are incredibly bright in contrast with most of the other skins.
  • Forest Green - Mostly green, but uses reddish brown in some parts. True to its name, it borrows many elements from the forest type environments of the Mushroom Kingdom.
  • Halloween Spooktacular - Another seasonal skin decorated with a black and orange color setup. The Boo enemy from the Super Mario series can be seen in most areas, but there are other enemies as well.
  • Nintendo DS - Follows a black-and-white color scheme similar to the Nintendo DS. Created by SonicProject.
  • Halloween Spooktacular - A skin based on Halloween related Mario things, such as Boos, Dry Bones, and pumpkin enemies.
  • MFGG Retro - Uses the colour-scheme and images used from MFGG's ezboards in 2001/2002. Created by Yoshiman.
  • Ocean Spray - Can be considered a ancestor of Tropical Splash. Mostly violet-colored and is based around an underwater theme. Jellyfish and dolphins can be seen as decorations.*
  • Doomship Gloom - A dull wood-and-metal skin with a cloudy night sky background, themed after the Doomships from Super Mario Bros. 3.*
  • Boo Berry - A skin based on boos, ghost houses, and various other ghastly things.*
  • 8-bit MegaMan - The strangest skin addition yet, and the first MFGG skin to not be based around Mario, but rather, the NES MegaMan games.
  • DS Lite - a Nintendo DS Lite version of the Nintendo DS skin. Created by SonicProject.
  • Subcon - A green/brown skin based off the world of Subcon from Super Mario Bros. 2. Created by Grant.
  • Codec Cyan - A Metal Gear Solid codec based skin. Made by Luminous Reaver.
  • Life on MFGG - A skin based off of the show Life on Mars. It was made to look old, from the 1970s.
  • New Super Mario Brothers - A green NSMB-based skin with 8-bit sprites and graphics from the DS game.*
  • Yoshis Island - A Yoshi's Island-based skin. Made by Jazz.
  • New MFGG - The second default skin, it looks more organized than the old MFGG Default.*
  • Revenge of the King - A skin based off of the mode in Kirby Super Star Ultra that has the same name. Made by Jazz.
  • Donkey Kong Country - A skin based off of various things in the DKC series.
  • Simplistic Green - A skin made by Char to be very simple. Has Luigi's hat in the logo.*
  • MFGGreece (AKA Simplistic Blue) - A skin made by Char for April Fools 2010. People liked it enough, so it became a skin option.
  • Blue Challenger - The new default skin to celebrate MFGG's ninth birthday.*

*Can be found in phpBB MFGG.
