PokerNOW (Party skin) $200 + free book signup bonus *DELETED*

If I had to guess I would say its basically a giant affiliate setup. The reason they dont have an affiliate program is because they are an affiliate. I'd guess party is the one actually behind it, they at the very least have to be intimitely involved with it, because they are allowing people who already have a party account to basically get another party account. Hell maybe party has lost to many players to other skins, and this is a way to get some of them back. Whatever the reasons are, its definately not a skin and something different.

It is different from the other skins in that

a) You can't have the Party and PokerNow clients open at the same time.

b) It says "Powered by Party Poker" right on the PokerNow logo.

c) The My-Account page, though having fewer options than the Party Poker My-account page, does have an option for starting chips for the Party Poker Million.

Everything else seems to be consistent with the other Party skins though.

FWIW, the guy at Pay-Pro told me that there's no problem with having an account at both Party and PokerNow, right before he thanked me for signing up with Party Poker.
