I suppose 'decor' does feel like something out of the 1970s!

Yup and it feels more like redecorating the house or something, but definitely not associating with websites of any sort[1]
 1. not to me at least

Yeah, sounds about right then.[1]

I just tossed that out there. Time to just toss it out. It IS too HGTV. :thanks:

And it does look like somebody's trying to play his shoehorn.

Sure do and I abuse them in SD too :D, my users love it in posts they even use it for their OT comments and keep them out of discussion so to speak

Well, add-ons are a core feature :)

So anyway, we seem to have ruled out decor, and possibly Mary Poppins' influence...

That's the goal ;)

@Pete> I removed these two 'funny' options. I would have stopped the poll entirely a couple of hours ago -- at the time it was like 6 or 7 votes for Skins and 2 or 3 votes for Stylings. It seems to have reversed, though -- now they're both at 8 votes. Uh. Well, whatever! Again, I've modified the poll to allow you guys to change your mind on the vote.

My current faves for both polls (i.e. what would make me happy): Plugins, Mods, Skins.

I voted for skins, not because other systems use it but because it describes what your doing more closely.
Thank you,

I voted skins--I agree with godboko. That, and WedgeRinds wasn't available. :P

Went for skins as well, just more use to that term than stylings.

Went with Styling s because it sounds classier.[1]
Skins = slang.
 1. No one listens to me anyway, so feel free to ignore. :eheh:

Skins are a clear winner, so I renamed stylings to skins in revision 859.
Thanks everyone for sharing your opinion!
