Forum:Visual changes proposal

Okay, so I created this forum for us, mostly (but not limited to) me and Soxra, to suggest aesthetic changes to the content of this wiki. So, if you have suggestions, feel free to share them here, and please, follow the format.

Eh, I prefer the one we're currently using. The other would make it look less organized. But, I haven't seen it being used in any articles yet so I can't say for sure if it would look bad or not. Maybe it would look good, also depending on which color we would chose. But for now I'm still saying no this until I see it in action. - JTD95 21:56, 30 January 2012 (UTC)


 * In response to your doubts, JTD95, no, the frames do not collide with the content and do not make it look chaotic, as you can see Here. Since the general consensus seem to be that this change is liked, all that remains is to decide in a color before I can apply it.-- 22:22, 30 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Nope. 06:06, 2 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Huh? The boxes are dark purple. If it was black, you wouldn't be able to read it. Perhaps provide a screenshot so I can see exactly how it's unreadable? 06:26, 2 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Ergh, my oversight. Should work fine now, once your cache decides it wants to be nice. You should upgrade your browser sometime soon, though... ^^ 07:05, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Really not liking the color. It's too red, and it doesn't match anything in the theme. I suggest Jazzberry Jam (#A50B5E) or something similar. Does that work? -- 21:27, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Hm. I'll see what I can do... 04:51, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

I personally think in its current state at the very bottom, rather than a window 19:22, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

3D and KH need to retain their colors, magenta-pink and deep dark blue respectively. Days needs to be a bit darker and redder. Birth by Sleep needs to be lighter and it's good to go. 15:30, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

@ENX: Of course not. We used those tiny images in the keyhole in order not to imitate the talk bubble sprite idea that it was beign used here. The image this time can be whatever you guys want.-- 02:03, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

These should be certain emblems in the game, like Nobody, Dream Eater, etc. if we're to change to your new ones. Otherwise they become what ENX is suggesting. 15:30, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

The new one is gorgeous! But I think I have to agree with that it looks slightly better to have all the songs in one tab. -- JTD95 08:27, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

I don't mind the color, music should be what we currently have. 15:30, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
 * We can split the music off into a separate box if needed, but the image there was part of an initiative to draw the eye to the music section, as requested (though it was supposed to be replaced with a text image...). As for the foreign language links, those automatically create the links to the other wikis. If we want them to display as well, we can, but we need to preserve the interwiki functionality.
 * Chitalian, the songs are already under different tabs, it's just that that is also collapsed so that the infobox isn't too long.
 * Would it be better to move the songs to a separate tab, as we do with journal entries?
 * Also, Soxra, can you adjust your code so that the black text is white (better contrast) and so that the borders don't show around the image tabs? 04:08, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Actually, guys, this would work really well here, since there's no width restriction as there was back in wikia. But, oh, well, let's hear other's opinion, too.-- 02:06, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

I don't mind the huge quotation marks. 15:30, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

No, it looks horrible, no matter what the size is (it doesn't look good on the Team Fortress Wiki either). Quotes are just a minor part of an article, their not all that important. You shouldn't put this much focus on the quotes. Making the quotes this noticeable is just disturbing for people when they're reading through the articles. - JTD95 21:54, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

 * The point for this at the Keyhole was mostly so it was know what kind of activities a staffer could do, so users could know who to ask each thing, like moving pictures or blocking vandals. There's the staff page for that, but some users dont bother in checking the link at the bottom of the Interaction segment in the sidebar. By no means is this a way of showing superiority.-- 02:01, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

I like it. 15:30, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Templates that worked in the keyhole should work even better in an independent wiki when there are no limitations or restrictions by wikia, in all honesty.-- 02:07, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Try to pile up the current templates like that. There's not much of a difference, not to mention they wouldnt pile up this time due to the suite template-- 04:49, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

The current one looks better. It has nicer colors (perhaps it could be changed, I don't know), I prefer the round edges and the fact that the text is centered makes it look more independent from the rest of the article which doesn't have centered text. - JTD95 08:44, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

No, no, no... to the left-aligned part. What's the use of having the borders go all over the page if the text is going to be left-aligned? I like the idea, anyways, but the text should be centered, not left. 15:30, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
