As of right now you can organize custom skins by gold/silver fee, date added, and the skin and author's name in alphabetical order. You can limit the skins to ones with certain colors, look at just a particular species, and use the search to look for skins with a specific tag or search a user's name to see their skins. You can also organize the skins by how many uses they have. When put in descending order, you see the skins with the most uses first and it gradually goes down until you get to the ones with 0 uses, which there are a lot of. My suggestion is another way of organizing skins.
Sometimes users can have difficulty acquiring a rainbow jar to use a skin they like, or they don't have a pet they deem worthy of giving a custom skin to. In that case, the skin goes unused. I've recently gotten into submitting skins and seeing them with no uses can be a bit of a downer as it can make you question if your skin was any good or not. I think implementing a system for "liking" skins would be a good way to fix that. Users can click to show they like the skins, and the number of likes each skin has can be shown like the uses. Skins can then be searched for by the number of likes they have. This will also be able to show what kind of skins are popular amongst the BK community and give new artists an idea of what would be appropriate for their own skins while artists who have accepted skins can see that their work is being appreciated even if it hasn't been used.
