Right now I have cosmic flower. I change it every couple of months though. Before I had a pink one ... then I think the one based off of starry night before that.
I used the discount code for the free matte finish this time and I really like that. |

Just looking at the decal girl skins - look very nice- will need to ask them if they have a UK supplier though

The original leather case works for me. Nothing else needed.

'Woodgrain Black' also. Might just be me, but the black on black seems to make the text sharper/darker.

At the moment: none. Last I had on there was DecalGirl "Carbon" (in matte). Now I'm waiting for my Javoedge cover to arrive, and if I like it, I'll not need a skin, as the Kindle slides into it such that there is essentially a black leather skin on the front.

OOps, sorry folks, you meant skin, not jacket
![]() "being a photographer i do notice certain details, i would change the white framing with either a neustral (18%) grey or another darker color just to make the eink diplay background look more "white" as the contrast with the frame make it look darker than what it is" There is a psycophysiology reasoning behind it. The bright withe frame is perceived by the eye as the "refence" white thus making the eink background slightly "grey" (i would say around 3-5%, if i find the time ill try to measure it with a thermocolorimeter, just to know). I do not know whay they choosed to make it such a brigh white, no "technical" reaosn i could think of, bt i guess there were marketing and other psychological thinking about that choice. |
