Why don't you guys have a fancy [[MediaWiki:Monaco.css|custom skin]] like most other big wikis do? It makes the site seem so plain and boring :( I've been experimenting a little bit on [[User:Ose/monaco.css]], if anyone wants to check it out, but it will need a lot more tweaking before it could possibly go live (if people even like it).

Why don't you guys have a fancy custom skin like most other big wikis do? It makes the site seem so plain and boring :( I've been experimenting a little bit on User:Ose/monaco.css, if anyone wants to check it out, but it will need a lot more tweaking before it could possibly go live (if people even like it).

I like that, except the black. Things on the main page don't show up too well. We should have a custom skin and I feel that your code Ose is the right way to go. With a few tweaks, it will be great. User:Solar Dragon/Signature 18:02, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
