Trying again.....

Susan in VA said:
OK, not that I think anybody really cares what skin I pick (and if you do, you need to get out more), but I'm doing this for the practice of figuring out how to do image links. And if anybody wants to weigh in and tell me that any of these doesn't really look good on the K2, feel free.

These are the nine I like (at least at this moment). Three that were already deleted are Plum Royal (too dark) and Red Plaid (I like the pattern, but it's not symmetric and that would bug me) and the Tie-dye (too much of a good thing -- if only they had a one-color tie-dye, like maybe purple/white, or blue/white).







I wish they made the Pink Tranquility in turquoise, that would be my pick!

Good for you...once you figure this stuff out, it gets easier... I really like that wood one, I have a thing for
teak and mid century danish modern wood things and it reminds me of that. I also find the iris one very interesting and the last blue. I think darker colors work better, for me at least. Less distracting but does depend on your cover choice. Did you decide on a cover? I would pick that before I picked a skin.

Funny, I usually don't like fake wood grain at all (though I do like wood, except for mahogany), but on the Kindle it does look good. If anybody reading this has one of the wood skins, do you like it? Or does it look too fake?

Right now I'm leaning toward either the first turquoise or the last dark blue, but that could change...

Good point about picking a cover to match. I think I'll go with a BB case for now, and I guess I should go browse those today... I just found out that it will be another WEEK before my Kindle arrives, so that will be like a little appetizer :)

You can always customize. Luv did and got a pretty purple one and I'm still waiting for them to fix my order and send my green superstar and flores.

It costs 20 for the custom skins but if you really love the design it's worth it.

Hi! My husband has one of the wood grain skins on his K1 and it looks great! What I like about it is that it virtually disappears because it's so monochrome with just a hint of 'wood grain' ;)
