Honorable Kman of Natural Born Skinners
I was astonished to learn of your departure from the IFSZ, on that so day long ago. However, when I relayed the horrific news to my peoples (our forums have always included your skins) and that we may never see you or your style again, they went into an uproar. No, they said, not our Almighty! It was indeed sad news.
But no. . .I could not fully believe such a thing, and so I struck up a small investigation in hopes of finding some trace of you -- and your existance on the Internet.
And here you are.
Well, I suppose that you are getting awfully bored with this true story, so I''ll come out and tell you the reason why I am here, representing my people (not exactly mine, but when you're a community like ours, everyone is everybodies).
We have struggled to make an impact on the Clanning World, and if you are familiar with it or not, is a system in which people band together to get the most out of a certain RPG game.
But we're not really all for blending in; you know, staying with the crowd.
We've searched through thousands of topics of skins, over hours upon hours, and yours was always in the top selections, and eventually the one we picked each time.
But now. . . it's almost depressing that you've decided to abandon the Invisionfree Skin group, and go with VBulletin (I have absolutely nothing against VB, but my community is not currenlty using it's services, so your newest skin work is of no use to us :( ).
How do you say this. . . don't get me wrong, I'm using a theasarus, for no word sounds right off the top of my head for you. . . I'm basically pleeding that you help me and my 82 peoples out.
I know, you've probably gotten over 20 requests in the last week.
But Kman, laddie, we'd wait for as long as you needed if you were ever to help!
Now, 82 peoples does not sound like a massive community. . .deep down inside, it is though. And the things we've struggled through, Computer or not, is startling because not many organizations (even IRL) have that kind of sense atwixt their members.
But what I'm trying to get at is that mayhaps you could help us. . .mayhaps you could do one more skin for one more community, a community that favors your work over most others but prefers almost anything, a community that is so tight-knit that we've made it through more "Clan Eras" than most clans about. . .
We'd like to make a large impact, and not just stand alone. I hope you see what that means there.
Kman, I have nothing to offer you, besides my eternal kindness (so to say, we meet in afterlife). . .I am just a lone 16-year-old that could not even afford some pay for ad-removal. I know you may or may not ignore this.
But I'm sure our Almighty would say something.
If you are somewhat interested in helping a small, but large community inside, I'd like to give you a warm thanks first; and second, the link, of course.

We mainly prefer dark skins, but as it is, we love the Tech skin that you made for the thousands who needed. Wow, is that some amazing work. Anything would do.
Even if you made some scratchwork that looked pathetic in your eyes, it would seem grand in ours for our Kman did it.
Would a million people like to be you. You have that knowledge of skinning and style that few have; and those that do, can rarely express it. I absolutely adore your work.
Please...almost anything would help my community. A banner, a skin, or both.
Oh Kman, anything.
I'm not trying to be a suck-up for a brand new skin for us, I'm trying to express what you mean to so many people and the effect you've had. You're a legend, and you can wake up ever morning and know that.
I wouldn't go to anyone else for help, because you are our best and we only need the best.
Help Bloodshed survive.
Thank you so much.
We understand completly if you chose to ignore or forget the request.
Friend, we need a beautiful skin with all images inset, and perhaps a gorgeous banner aswell.
Only from the hand of Kman shall we ever request a thing (others may try, but I would love to see a reply from Kman).
Thank you so much.
