Because the question would arise, "Why can't we have like 35 or 40?"

The line must be drawn.

He wants to see more lines drawn, on his plane that is.

Check the size of your skins folder.

I love all the skins, and would like to see 31 user skins but skins take up a lot of resources, including download bandwidth.

There's close to 100 different rides that can be skinned now, that's up to 1500 skins that can in theory be done. Think how many resources that takes. There's HTC's bandwidth plus the load on players' systems if they try and use all of them (tech support calls to Skuzzy etc.) Then there's the administration that has to be done, checking and filing them. IIRC the last time this came up someone from HTC reckoned they might have overdone it a bit at 15 skins per ride.

S-s-s-stuttering graphics as your computer renders each skin as it sees it.
