Help Change message skin

Hello:)

Can someone please let me know how can I change the message skin/theme?

I can't find it now, ever since I updated firmware:(
 
Ahh, I wasn't aware you could change skins on your phone, that's a nice feature.

Was it an official Samsung update or have you installed a custom ROM?

It's the official firmware update, 2.3.3, which now, either concealed that option very well...or removed it altogether:(
 
Might have been removed then? Seems strange to remove a feature like that although it could've caused problems with other elements of the 2.3.3 update.
 
yeah, i think one of the KF versions had themes. by KF2 it was removed again. dont know why. and 2.3.4 does not have it (KG2)
 
Am I missing something? I have stock standard SGS2 and when I go into the first screen of messaging and hit menu, settings..... I get the first option "Message Skins". When I hit that, I get a selection screen with 5 'tiles' with different styles. I have already changed mine on the 2nd or 3rd day. Would be nice to be able to add some new ones though.

I have Gingerbread.XWKE7 - Are you saying if I update that any higher I loose the ability to change this?

Apparently yes...I have updated the firmware and that option vanished completely...Agree with you, it was a nice feature and it would have been nice to be able to change it and add more skins...:(
 
I have 2.3.3 and i can easily change my msg skin.
Mine works by going to the settings when on the msgs list and its the first option..
