Thanks for your feedback.. A "skin upgrade" progress page is a nice idea.. Might get started on that quickly before I head off for the night.

Ehren, I have another suggestion... Naturally take it or leave it as you see fit. Even with the skin upgrade progress page, there seems to be a lot of people who want their existing skin to be next in the list for upgrading.
May I put forward a suggestion... Though I haven't had the opportunity to use IPboards yet (even though I will purchase one of these skins very soon), I'm sure it must a have the ability like most forum engines, where you could create a poll/vote topic. Probably best within the customer area to give those existing loyal customers the preference of which skin to be upgraded first.
Simply put up the topic where customers get the opportunity to vote (once only with a radio button against the list of skins to be upgraded). The skin with the most votes gets upgraded next, and so on. Naturally until the customer has voted, thet aren't priveledged to see the vote statistics.
This way customers are getting the most fair way to request their skin be upgraded, and are guaranteed their vote/say means something. Also from your perspective, it means that the most popular skins are being upgraded first, which should reduce the constant requests.
Just a thought
