Forum:New wiki skin

Me and some other users have been thinking about a new skin for the wiki. A skin has m,any positives such as it looks better, thus making it more appealing to new users. If you want to make a skin, you should probably test on User:your username/Monobook.css replacing your username with your username. Or you might have another type of skin you want to change: monaco, quartz, etc. But test on your userspace first. then submit it here, linking to the page. I like the skin here. A couple of minor changes would make it look even better. Thoughts? Cheers, Chicken7   >talk   01:27, 20 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I was thinking of changing the borders, backgrounds, etc., to look like the B-K logo (or rather the B-T logo just for the little paw and talon prints), like a blue background and red boxes (or vise versa) with several-pixel gold borders. If possible, I think it would be great if we could apply the stylistic changes to all the skins using Commons.css without messing with their layouts; it always kind of bugs me when I go onto a wiki with a neat custom skin, but am forced to use that particular skin's layout if I want to see anything. I dunno though, I'll mess around with it some on my Commons.


 * I like that idea. I'll make a background with the footprints off of Banjo-Tooie if you want me to. Does common.css add it to all skins? Cheers, Chicken7   >talk   12:52, 21 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I think I've made a rough idea of blue banjo footprints. It is a little wierd because there is no full footprint in the logo, leaving me to have to join parts together. I'll add it tommorrow. Cheers, Chicken7   >talk   13:41, 7 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Make sure it's positioned correctly so it repeats properly. You might have to copy and paste the print a few times.
