Editing Forum:New Wiki Layout/Archive I

{{Guardian Soul|text=So a few of us want to change over the wiki's layout, because the plain blue is getting a bit boring.  Azul has given the okay, so I guess we're going to be going with a Days theme.  Here's a list of ideas:

*Switch from a blue theme to an autumn red theme like Days.

*Get up a timer that counts down to the English release of Days.

*Switch the Sora, Riku, and Kairi logo for a Roxas, Axel, and Xion one.

*Perhaps change the ad placement for better convenience if possible.

*Get a background near the top like on the [http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Final_Fantasy_Wiki Final Fantasy Wiki].

*Maybe we could start adding featured articles, quotes, and other interesting things.

*Switch the picture in the Twilight Town bulletin board box for a Days image.

*Change the name of Jiminy's Journal to Roxas's Diary for awhile.

Any other ideas or comments are welcome.  Let's get this discussion going.}}
{{yer mom|text=I liek 8D 

But as I <s>pleaded</s> suggested in BebopKate's page I'm hoping for a light make over, talk bubbles added to a customized background might burninate my computer's chips and that would make me a sad gamer :(

If we're having a background change I suggest a solid color, perhaps a light orange/red to go along with the sunset autumn thing, images as backgrounds tend to go ugly on different resolutions and we really can't reach a decision on that one since everyone has different screens XD. I do like the customized background in the top of the FF wiki (as it doesn't make my computer attempt suicide). Perhaps something iconic to KH? Bond of Flame keyblade (since it goes with the autumn feeling) or maybe a Nobody symbol (since the game is mainly about nobodies)? 

I also vote for something like the random quote thing they have in the FF wiki, that way everyone can get their suggestions and we wouldn't have to limit ourselves to a monthly quote that would require voting.}}
{{Guardian Soul|text=I don't think anyone plans on changing the actual background color, white is fine.  I just meant at the top like FFWiki did.}}
{{yer mom|text=Ah well, that sets my heart at peace then. When TNE mentioned the changes in the sims wiki I thought she also meant the whole background change as in that wiki they changed the whole background for green... crystal... thingies... or something like that. But you're right, white is good and noble.}}

{{TNE|blahtext=Oh come on, it isn't gonna be as bad as that of the Sims wiki..........}}

{{HeartOfOblivion|text=I really like the idea of a Roxas, Axel, Xion look. So while I was bored I made these:

[[File:LogoOutlineFinal.jpg]]

Just some logos I made. I can make them different if you want to use them or change to certain specifications.}}

{{TNE|text=I'll edit it and see the difference. Also see [[User talk:BebopKate]].}}
{{KrytenKoro|I would say "KH Wiki" might look better - big K, big H, smaller "Wiki" underneath. Definitely in the KH font, though.}}
{{TNE|text=Naw... Trust me, I've tried.}}
{{HeartOfOblivion|text=Like this? 
[[File:LogoOutlinenew.jpg]]


Or did you mean the other one? I think it looks a little weird with all that space next to it.}}

{{Guardian Soul|text=Those images don't really go together well, why not use their faces from the ultimania?

It has to look professional though.  If nobody has photoshop I can get it done by one of the graphics people on KHI.}}

{{TNE|blahtext=I '''had''' to get edit conflicted before I could even submit an idea using HeartOfOblivion's idea, ''n'est-ce pas'' ? Anyway, here's what I have in mind.  
    
[[File:Prototype1.png|Without the KH font, and]][[File:Prototype2.png|With the KH font]]
    
Which do you think will suit the Days theme better ? Or think we should try something else ?}}

{{yer mom|text=I was picturing something more like what we have now, simple face shots of the three characters (perhaps from the high quality renders?) so it somehow mirrors the one we have right now}}

{{HeartOfOblivion|text=Here are the other faces that Guardian Soul said we should use:

{{Guardian Soul|text=I think we should do something with this:
[[File:WikiLogoTest.png]]}}

{{TNE|happytext=Wow, ''c'est magnifique'' ! Let's use it ! :DDDDDDD}}

I was messing around earlier and made this
I tried to recreate as close to the original logo as possible, but hadn't thought of using the Ultimania images.  The font isn't the same, but I tried.  And I don't know how to insert linebreaks?[[User:Oblivionkeeper|Oblivionkeeper]] 04:46, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

{{TNE|blahtext=Aw, I want colour ! Like GS' one ! :D}}

I agree with you.  The color certainly looks better. [[User:Oblivionkeeper|Oblivionkeeper]] 17:37, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

{{HeartOfOblivion|text=Well, I tried again with the pics we now want. I made two because I think it's hard to read the one where the text is right on the pics.

{{yer mom|text=umh HeartOfOblivion why did you delete my post?

Anywayz, perhaps if you try with another font color, something that makes a contrast?}}

{{HeartOfOblivion|text=What post? I have tried with other colors, for instance black won't work because of their robes and white doesn't work either.}}

{{Xiggie|text=Sorry to barge in here.

I like GS's images, but maybe in some other "form" that Heart of Oblivion made them...

I did this earlier today:

(I know that this is not like anyone's been talking about, but like I said, I did this before anyone started talking about the layout.)}}

{{Xiggie|text=I just did another one with GS's images:

http://i710.photobucket.com/albums/ww103/Xiggie2/Wiki_Frame.png}}

{{Guardian Soul|text=I think I'll just get a GFX artist to do one for us.}}

{{Xiggie|text=that's be cool! but I still like your one, but with "Kingdom hearts Wiki" added.}}

{{NitrousX|text=That would be cool, but I think that the one we use should have close up face shots like the one we have now, so that it looks like the exact opposite, since they're nobodies.

P.S. Do you know when this will be completed?}}
{{Guardian Soul|text=I have someone working on the logo, but Azul hasn't been around since Monday.}}
