Perhaps we should have one, over the 2-3 month series period, that changes for every major plot development, for example the one at the moment is the little girl regenerating. For example, [spoiler about future episode removed by admin], but seeing as no major developments happens until the mid-series finale, then we don't really need to change it. We could always do something like a TARDIS with the words "sexy?" underneath seeing as the doctor's wife has just aired. Or, we could simply do a quote from the episode... --{{user:Ghastly9090/sig}} 19:00, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

::Interesting suggestions, but again, we can't be changing it every week, because it's just not enough time to turn out ''good'' backgrounds.  Plus, someone would have to commit to changing the background on a weekly basis, which isn't necessarily a fair burden to put on any particular admin.  And how would we decide when to make the change so that it doesn't spoil people?  No, vague and not-terribly-time-sensitive is the way to go.  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''14:23:16 Sun&nbsp;'''15 May 2011&nbsp;</span>

::As someone who mostly changes (and often forgets to change) the quote of the week I want to second the not changing it weekly, as CzechOut has pointed out getting the background ''right'' is a somewhat complicated process, which while users can get a fair bit of the way there, admins still need to test and tweak it and it's something admins have to do as it's part of the guts of the wiki. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 17:05, May 15, 2011 (UTC)
