I go away for a couple of hours and when I come back the pages are using the standard Wikia styles. I don't see anything about this in the change history, and I don't remember changing my preferences.

Is this a wikia.com problem? (Is anyone else seeing this?) Argadi 15:27, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

I didn't do nusink! It chust kem apart in my hends. Did someone change our default style? They might also be working on the whatchamacallit (Monaco?) skin. I think I might like this one better. It's clean. We need an icon for it. Hmm... I'll put in a quick fix. --mnenyver 15:35, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
The old style is back. There were some interesting navigation menus with the other style it would be nice to have, menus with editors choices and most viewed pages. Argadi 15:53, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
I messed with the admin interface for default skin after it changed the first time, to no effect. Then it changed back for a while. Now it's the new style again. I'm pretty sure it's the Wikia administration doing the phaseout they warned us about. I agree there are some cool gadgets in the standard style, and presumably we can take it back to the more victorian color scheme, etc. — Zarchne 17:56, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Graphics[]

Who is our expert graphics designer person? I think we should do a custom CSS with this new skin ('cause Brick is pretty fugly). I can do it, but I'd rather it was done by someone who considers themselves an artist. --mnenyver 19:39, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

I'd rather it was done with someone who had artistic sense/ability, regardless of what they consider themselves. I have some, but it's unlikely to get done by me, given that I've been meaning to make a proposal for favicon for several months and have yet to move on it. — Zarchne 21:59, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
I have some ability, and the time to work on it, but alas I have no CSS skillz... -Acacia 04:53, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Looks like you don't need any to start with, wikihelp:Customizing_Monaco will ease you into it. — Zarchne 09:11, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
