Xiggie Buy / Sell — Welcome! What do you wanna do? Just because we're kids doesn't mean we can't run a business— 17:25, December 16, 2009 (UTC) Hello there, my fellow KH Wiki editors. As you should all know, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep will be out in Japan in less than a month (on the 9th of January), so I think that we should get ready to change the Wiki from this current red Days theme over to a blue BBS theme. I have made a new Wiki logo that is very similar to our current one; the three main characters and Kingdom Hearts written below them. But this time, I added 'WIKI' below that, and you just tell me how it looks :D OK, Now I also thought about what we could put as the background image (which is currently a checked KH Days pattern). I suggest using this one below, that can be found on the limited edition BBS PSP's: Now, I've done some image editing to see how it'll look, and I love it :D I changed the red to blue, and switched the logos and background pattern as well as making it a lot lighter so it would be so noticeable. I made two versions; one with a grey background, and one where I colored it slightly blue. Please take a look and tell me what you think: BBS Theme - Grey background BBS Theme - Blueish background Well, how is it?

Whether I like it or not, you guys are my best friends. — JFHavoc 17:32, December 16, 2009 (UTC) I think it looks AWESOME! I also think the Grey background looks a little nicer than the blueish one. But that's just my opinion.

LevL Fear my mighty instruments! It looks good, both the grey and the blueish background, though I prefer the blueish one.

maggosh Strike backwards... — "That's a nice expression." You're terrified, aren't you? I approve, good sir.

DoorToNothing — I dreamed last night... I got on the boat to Heaven! And by some chance, I had brought my dice along! — 20:02, December 16, 2009 (UTC) Impressive, Xiggie, thanks for getting all of this prepared. There are a few comments concerns I have, though: Definitely use the grey background; its monochromatic effect is the same as what we have right now, which I prefer to the blue one. Plus, the blue one seems off-tone with the blue headings and logo. That blue that you used for the headings looks awfully familiar... is it the same as our previous theme? I was really hoping for the headings to be a lighter blue, to match the color used in the Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep logo. Not aqua, as that is far too bright, but a pale-ish, lighter blue, rather than the bold, plain blue. The logo looks great; thanks for using color in it, and finding a way to incorporate the word "WIKI" into it. If my memory still serves me the way it should, I believe that was an issue when we remodeled for Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. This is the English Kingdom Hearts Wiki, and therefore, most of our visitors and readers aren't going to be familiar with the Japanese release of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. Depending of community feedback, perhaps this theme should be saved for the North American release of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. I know that's what we did for Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, or perhaps that was because everyone was spending way too much time worrying about a new logo. Luckily, that will not be the case this time. As of now, nearly all of our administrative and maintenance templates are using characters from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. I would like to leave the templates like this, despite that we are changing our theme to one that is not Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. The reason is that we have no mugshots to put in the templates, and using full renders would make the templates ridiculously large. There also aren't as many main characters to use. Since Organization XIII and the other main Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days characters are still a large part of the Kingdom Hearts series as a whole, I would like to leave them in the templates. It seems to me that most of our visitors and readers are still coming here for Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days information, even though we still have to get a lot of the Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days information into the articles. I'm mainly talking about weapon stats, abilities, and accessories, which we really need to push the community to work on. If these requests can be put into motion, I will be very pleased, and in complete favor of implementing this theme.

Eternal Nothingness XIII - I'm not afraid of what the darkness holds now. Even if you do wrest control of my heart from me, even if you cast me into the deepest, darkest abyss, you'll never sway me from the one cause that pushes me to keep on fighting. Whatever the cost, I'm ready to pay it. TALK - There's darkness within me... So what does that matter? I know I'm strong enough to hold it back. — 20:38, December 16, 2009 (UTC) I think that it looks better with the blue-ish background. I honestly do. I think we should put it up for Japan's release, so we stay "Up to Date", and we can then commense with template remodels. If it's possible to make Days Sprites or close to it out of the heads of BBS character renders, Xiggie and I will handle this. We've been planning this as our little team pet project for a long time. I think stick to the blue background, and heed DTN's requests for the heading text colors. The gray is just so boring.

JFHavoc Talk to Me! — I once took an IQ test and got a score of over 9000. You're all morons. — JFHavoc 20:46, December 16, 2009 (UTC) I agree with ENX. We should put this up by the time of the Japanese release.
