Very good!~CrystalLucario~ 21:04, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

one word.....AWSOME!!!!!! Prof. 03:26, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Nice new skin. But I'd recommend not having the far background fixed. In my opinion, that would make things a bit better while scrolling... But heck. Do whatever you guys feel is best. ;) InfectedShroom.

I'd have to say that I disagree. It's not like it makes it impossible to read the text.--Prezintenden 10:12, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

I didn't say that it did. I just think that it feels more natural when I'm scrolling through a page. InfectedShroom

Okay, but that could have been specified more clearly.--Prezintenden 20:11, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Specified more clearly? :| I figured you knew what I meant. How hard is it to know what I mean when I say "fixed background" and I 'm talking about a CSS? InfectedShroom

...Wait, why didn't people put their comments below the line I helpfully put in...? Anyway, thanks for all the positive comments. About the background, I found that when it wasn't fixed, long pages had it right in the middle, which looked a bit silly; and opening the tables in Treasure Hoard made it pop up and down the page. This way, it's always visible. If what you don't like is it makes text trickier to read, I can make it more transparent, though I already did that once.GP 07:55, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

o_0 That's not what he meant. He just dislikes that the background doesn't stay at the top of the screen. Of course I was aware what you were talking about IS, I didn't understand why you don't like it this way.--Prezintenden 09:52, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Ah, Greenpickle, now I see what you did. I was under the impression that you had a semitransparent foreground or something. :P And sorry, Prez, for blowing up slightly like that. ;) InfectedShroom

It's a magical background! CHARLIE! ~CrystalLucario~ 11:11, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Are we planning on changing the logo soon cuz I have somegreat pixel-art pikmin but credit for the top 4 sprites goes to Dry Bones of Mariowiki...~CrystalLucario~ 11:25, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Err, we would only change the picture of the wide quartz skin. The rest is still new, and I don't want to change that yet.--Prezintenden 17:10, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Very nice, it adds a colorful, user-friendly touch to the Wikia's GUI. Me_just_in01:20, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
