Forum:Custom monaco skin

I've been looking at other wikis, and I think it's about time we did something to customise our own wiki skin. I'm aware that only admins can actually do this, though I recently found out how to customise my own display, allowing me to do some experimenting. The result (so far) is the code at this page, which I've had on my own display now for about a week, as a way of testing it out.

I'd be interested to know what people think (you can view it for yourselves by copying and pasting the code to here). It's not perfect, but it's a start. THB  → Talk ← 01:46, May 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * I know we like orange, but my first opinion is "holy crap" at the header. No offense, but the blue/purpleish don't work that well on the top.  But I like the fade effect at the top, and the color scheme's starting to grow on me. Lanate (talk) 02:50, May 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've changed the header to a white gradient effect now. THB  → Talk ← 15:36, May 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * I like it. Kryten, Rad, anyone else?  Opinions? Lanate (talk) 04:35, May 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * Definitely ready to make public. Glorious  CHAOS!  06:45, May 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * I like it too. My only comment is that the top-left hand logo (the Digimon Wiki + Guilmon one), due to the non-white background, the transparency is quite obvious: you can see the white pixels, and it looks a bit like a bad photoshop job.  We might want to fix it up if we go with the new skin.  Other than that, looks great.

 * I've been thinking the same thing about the logo. I've uploaded a new version here, which can then be uploaded as the proper logo (again, this is an admin job).


 * Well, I'm glad to say that it seems like most of us are in favour of the new display. I'll probably adjust the background at some point - right now it's a bit repetetive.


 * So... are we ready to put it up? THB  → Talk ← 12:49, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
