NEW SUBWIKI THEME DISCUSSION
Check out this thread in order to discuss it! http://submachine.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:8828#13

I like the first and last ones. I think the last one would look a bit better increasing the opacity of the main section, and the first one would need a slightly tinted gray color to blend more with the background, but overall I like them the most.

1,5 and 6 are great
me think

Site update!

That's wonderful, I love how it looks like, especially the changed logo

Traditionally with a theme change I've also changed the main and glow color of all the templates such as infoboxes, disambiguation, etc.. Since this is a more tedious and repetitive work I can do it for you if you want. If you'd like to leave them white that's fine too

And finally, if you agree I also want to change the main page icons. I have 3 changes in mind:

-color change to match with the logo.
-change the cat to the stylized face of Sub10's Murtaugh or Liz
-optionally, animate the portal icon (look at the Spanish wiki for a shitty version of what I mean XD). This requires a small change to the mediawiki css file, but it can look very good if you do it well.

I wish I was admin of the Covert Front wiki. Than I can do that 2.

If the wiki is currently abandoned then you can ask the Wikia staff to make you an admin.

I am planning to rewrite it first.

You're doing a great job so far

Yeah, I was feeling creative, and for some reason I have a soft spot for karmic symbols

On it.

Oh, definitely. The first is natural, the second I have wanted for a long time (no offense to Einstein), and the third would be cool.

One thing: I seem to remember a discussion possibly between me and you or someone else about cleaning up the front page, between the slider and the buttons. As it is now:

Slider wrote: Submachine series
Theories
Locations
Notes

Buttons wrote: Submachine series
Items
Notes
People
Theories
Secrets
Locations
Cultural Influences

1) Four of these are the same.
2) "Locations" leads to [[Submachine Universe]], which is a game page that includes most but not all locations found in the franchise.

Overall, we need to decide which to keep and which to get rid of. Should we have

A) A slider and a condensed button list? (The slider will be updated image-wise as well)
b) Get rid of the slider and keep everything in the buttons list?

Personally I'm in favor of option B, and as far as creating a page with all locations, I would be down for that. But I'll ask other people their opinions on this while I work on the templates.
