I have just purchased a skin from GelaSkins. I just want to know who will use a skin for their K3 and what kind of graphics you like?

Here below is the one I purchased. As I live outside US, it will take 20 days to deliver to my home at HK.

Here's a whole thread where people showed their Decalgirl skins for K3 (owned and planned)
http://www.kindleboards.com/index.php?topic=33943.0

I think Gelaskin threads are more scattered - use Search This Site (upper right) and search for Gelaskin

I am planning to get a skin - I just worry about my eyes being distracted from their focus on the text. I'll probably be choosing a skin that's subtle.

I didn't get a skin for it's protection.

I got it for the beautiful pattern.

Same for my iPhone.

Of course, if you get hooked on skins, you can spend almost as much on them as your kindle.

Some people like to change them monthly.

I think I have at least two on hand for use when I tire of the one I am currently using.

If at first you don't succeed, use a bigger hammer

Don't worry, you'll get used to it.  You'll get the pleasure of looking at the skin when you pick up and put down the Kindle, but when you start reading, you'll get absorbed and won't notice it.

I love my Decalgirl skin! I can't imagine having a totally nekkid Kindle without one!
