Do you use skins?

DTStormfox

It depends on the character and class, background, race etc.

I do use them but I hate the fact that most armour styles and clothing cover a large proportion of the skin

DreamyLu

I do not use any of them.

It's about armor skins right? I couldn't find any combo of armor pieces giving a global result I like. Armors in this game are too "heavy/thick" to my taste and kill the colors we put on them in most cases.

I use them for most of my characters.

I don't have a lot of the Crown skins, but I do have a lot of the achievement skins - which I wear on almost all of my characters.

I don't mind if a person doesn't recognize an achievement skin I'm wearing. I'm not wearing the skin for them, I'm wearing it for me, and the people that do know what a particular skin means. It's kind of like wearing certain kicks; You know not every person on the street is going to recognize your limited runs, but you and the sneakerheads will know.

It's about skins category in collections menu, under appearance tab.

I actually did consider getting one or both of the Argonian skins they had a while back (one was dark and "oily" looking, the other was brightly colored), but while they looked kind of cool in the preview, I just didn't think I would actually use them. (I have no Argonian characters.)

Don't use them much, mostly play on Khajiit's and I think they looks better with their fur.
Now Argonians tend to look much better with skin.

"Hate" is maybe overkill. Let's just say I have very little appreciation for the skin artistry.

Only to hide ugly vampiric skin.

I think the vampire skin needs a rework its way to bright specially at stage 4 it just starts to mess with my eyes as well, I really hate using skins but I feel like I am being forced to.

OK, here are some more pictures of more of my characters that wear skins. After going through all of my characters, more of them than not wear skins. I really do like them.

I don't use skins or costumes. I try to play with an element of believability, as silly as that sounds with this game, and I don't think its believable to cover up armor with a thin costume or skin. The only way I'd use a costume is if I took my aromor off. Its the same reason I'd never use a hide helmet option.

I voted I don't use any skins, because I never found them attractive and most seem just too much, but viewing some of the photos in this thread has me reconsidering. Thanks for posting!

Vamp so neccessary for some of my pvp toons and I hate their appearance being ruined by it. Meridian helps the best I've found for me, I like the warmth back in the skin.

I use the Peyrite Afflicted skin when someone gets a little too close or flirty. Works like a charm.

I mostly use them to hide vamps. Although every once in a while I'll try to make a skin work with a nifty outfit.

I HATE THEM THEY ARE UGLY

No, I don't like any of them, and don't use them. None of them fit my character, and they're ugly.

Dojohoda

I use them sometimes.

DreadDaedroth

I use skins but most of latest ones are really bad designed. And I'm a fan of skins that make our characters "ugly" in a good way.

Not even for vampires since the rework, the stage 1-2 vamps look fine.
I'd wear some dungeon and trial skins for the prestige alone, but with so many sellers around it holds no value anymore.

Some skins look really good. I specially like Void Pathosis, Dro-m’Athra and Fabrication Sheath.

Think this applies to all the trial/achievement skins.

The only one I like/use is the Bright Throat one (iirc) on one of my Argonians and he looks fabulous.

Otherwise, pass.
