Uh, is it just me, or am I the only one to not see any changes? Or maybe it's that preference thing, where do I choose the option for the new skin? 17master 16:25, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

OR, we could find a completely blank wiki farm and have some of our more HTML oriented users screw around with the coding...

Okay, probably shouldn't be here, but what site are you guys moving to in the end? Winx Club Wiki's moving to shoutwiki, and from what I hear, if you import, the skin is barely affected at all. At least, that's what I heard for the banner-across-the-screen thing like we have, and I'm bet it holds true for simpler designs like yours. Oops, didn't mean to ramble. I just wanted to find out where you were moving so I could continue to visit here, this is one of the best wikis I've seen. Roxy13 ~ Dad, I'm a fairy! 01:00, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

we haven't decided yet, but we considered on moving to ShoutWiki 17master 09:20, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

Whoa, guys, we have overlooked the most difficult but most useful idea. We start from scratch. Now, I know there would be problems, but just a few of the things that could happen if we chose this course of action:
 * No one would have to run it constantly. We could have several bots... maybe even one for each namespace.  In addition, we could have one bot that acts as a leader.
 * We could eliminate the "my home" feature and replace it with two different recent changes pages. One for userspace and talkspace, and one for all of the other namespaces, including templatespace.
 * You know how with the Monaco look, there is the "what's hot on Wikia" and the bottom things that recommend other wikis, well, if we retain the current layout we have, we could replace those with ads... targeted ads (possibly another bot].
 * Of course, if someone wanted to change the theme, they would have to tell the programmer(s) to do it. We probably wouldn't have a simple non HTML interface.

Well, I'm sure I have more things that I forgot to list... but, yeah... that's about it. Any suggestions? Concerns?


 * Silver, you keep forgetting that this will still make the articles look like tosh to our readers. That is simply not acceptable.(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  15:28, October 9, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, and I remembered the other thing I forgot earlier. Your text could be retained separately when you get an edit conflict.

Yeah, but there's the thing. You ask for feedback, and we give it. What is the common response? Make it an option. Do yoy listen? I think you know the answer.

- So, yeah. I only had like 10 minutes to make this, but I'll update it hopefully... . Mainly, it is exactly what Monaco is right now, which is the point. If we were to found our own site, I would recommend use of the MediaWiki software. I was also thinking (but didn't have time to) that we could have the background banner go all of the way to the bottom of the screen. So... anyone can update the file to what they think it should look like...

Whoa whoa whoa, who said we were moving right away? The reason this forum was created was for moving, yes, but, we need to figure out what to do before we move. That includes reviewing other wiki farms, starting our own site, or manipulating Oasis enough to make it work. Yes, we will give it a try, but, no matter how good it is, we will all be automatically pre- disposed to it. Tough luck for Wikia.

It's everyone. P.S. I'm Wh!te$tar.

Yeah, especially since it freezes every 10 seconds...
