The "trusted" and "VIP" colored skulls are confusing for new users
#1
The first time I used TPB I thought the green and pink skulls next to torrent's names meant those torrents were risky to download. And so did two of my friends come to ask me about those skulls thinking they were dangerous when I told them about TPB. Not everyone is savvy enough to think of hovering their mouse over those skulls and see if the tooltips say anything about them. Thus, it would be much better UI design if the "trusted" and "VIP" were always spelled out next to the skulls, without having to hover the cursor over them. It would scare less people off of TPB.

They enter a pirate site which logo is a Jolly Rogers black sailed ship and are afraid of skulls?
Well, I suppose it can happen, but in order to keep with the "theme", TPB uses skulls where others have stars or hearts, just saying...
What -I- find confusing is the color choice and the "trusted" vs "VIP" thing. For me, there should be only "somewhat trusted" and "very trusted"
