{{Asif|sho=I think we should do something aesthetically to separate this wiki from the Wikia wiki. Didn't you say you would have much more freedom with MediaWiki when we become independent? Well, now the move is done so... let's see what you can do!

Oh, and I really like the interface of the Metroid Wiki on NIWA's network. I would love it if we could do something like that, but with the Birth by Sleep Final Mix images and colors. [[File:BBSFM Promotional Art.jpg|300px]]}}

{{SilverCrono|time=09:51, 20 February 2011 (EST)|text=I already noticed a few of these changes, and so did all of the people I asked to test the skin on the IRC. In act, I put it at the bottom of [[User:Troisnyxetienne/Mensa|this page]], so... yeah.


*Changing the colors of the skin ''is'' possible; in fact, I changed the colors to match the logos. However, I cannot figure out for the life of me how to change the colors of the sidebars.
*Yeah, I asked LegoAlchemist to flip it. The way the header was before, TNE, had Terra clashing with the logo. Three people complained about it, so Lego made a mirror image.
*This too was a heavily desired complaint. Sadly, because Rounded Blue isn't a Wikia official skin, they don't have instructions for it; I asked the WiKirby guy who made the skin to assist, but so far he hasn't gotten back to me. I don't know how to change it.
*As I said above, I don't know how to change the sidebars.
This wouldn't be so hard to code if one of the NEIWA wikis had a page with their code edits, but somehow, they don't... I'm sorry.
'''EDIT 11:51, 20 February 2011 (EST):''' Along with [[User:Erryk|erry]] (not to be confused with our other Erry >.>), I've edited the skin. The sidebars now match the background, they are round, and the background has a nice, pretty light blue color. Once we edit the search bar, this might be finished, unless you guys want to add a universal theme with different colors, at which point I would kill myself. But anyway, yeah, about 85% done now. Oh, and we've fixed the links; they look like they did in Monobook.

{{Mechajin|time=06:17, 20 February 2011 (EST)|text=I Prefer Sora/Riku/Kairi, seeing as in my eyes they are more important to the series. whereas Donald and Goofy are more for comic relief. (Although, having a Mickey,Donald,Goofy theme or something similar for April fools could be a good idea.}}

EDIT: I think the Search bar needs moving a bit, it doesn't look right where it is right now in my opinion.}}
{{TNE|time=07:01, 20 February 2011 (EST)|sadtext=I still think it needs a lot of improvement — yes, it's better than what we usually see, but the colours need a lot of changing, and there are some things which I'm willing to tweak but I'm not sure how to.}}
{{SC|time=09:51, 20 February 2011 (EST)|armor=Yeah, it still needs a lot of work. I'm sorry I couldn't do 100%, guys...
 
But... Yeah, Sora/Riku/Kairi.}}
 
{{Asif|sho=Two things:
#I think the layout is great, although would it be possible to change the fonts of the headers?  I'm not sure I like the one it's set to.
#I cast my vote for Sora/Riku/Kairi.
 
EDIT 11:59, 20 February 2011 (EST): Just to make sure I'm seeing the right skin, it is light blue with flowers and the normal logo on the side, right?}}
 
{{17m|text= As If!: you can change the background. Copy the codes from [[User:SilverCrono/roundedblue.css|here]] and pasta it [[User:As if!/roundedblue.css|here]] (yes, create the page), change your skin to roundedblue, clear the cache, and voila.}}
{{Dan da Man36|time=13:09, 20 February 2011 (EST)|happy=The new skin is awesome! Nice job, guys. =) I vote for SorDonGoof, just beacuse. =)
 
EDIT 13:36, 20 February 2011 (EST) : Actually, the logo could do with being a bit bigger, and is it just me, or is the magnifying glass by the search bar a little square around the edges?}}
:I agree with the logo, but we can't make it bigger or else it won't fit with Monobook and Vector. We can't make things bad for the other users, that would be just like Oasis. --{{SilverCrono/Sig}} 13:45, 20 February 2011 (EST)
::Aah, I see. {{User:Dan da Man36/Sig}} 13:48, 20 February 2011 (EST)
:::{{Asif|shoevil=Speaking of the logo, can you replace it with TNX's version?
 
And also, the logo disappears every time I put my cursor over it?  Is that some kind of glitch?  Every image that links to a page acts similarly whenever I hover my cursor over it.}}
{{SilverCrono|time=17:08, 20 February 2011 (EST)|text=The logo can't be replaced unless an admin uploads it over [[:File:Wiki.png]], because only admins can do that. I wouldn't recommend it, though, because we don't know if it'll work in Vector and Monobook yet.
 
And about the flashing logo, we fix'd that; I would recommend clearing your cache. (Hold!Ctrl+F5 or hold!Shift+Reload on Firefox). About the image, I'm not sure what to do about that.}}
{{Chitalian8|time=11:43, 21 February 2011 (EST)|happy= Although the new skin is good, I'm getting tired of TAV and all things BBS-related. I'm going for SoraRikuKairi, they are the main protagonists, after all.}}
