User talk:Kirkburn/Dev

Hullo! I am Kirkburn, your friendly local Wikia Gaming Helper!

You may have seen our recent announcement about the upcoming changes on Wikia - if not, please visit on Central Wikia. It's a little complex, so I recommend a thorough read.

To ensure your wiki continues to work properly, there are two main things that you need to do:
 * 1) Ensure you have a 135x155px logo at Image:Wiki.png. This will be your new logo. Wiki_wide.png will be going away.
 * 2) Update your main page column formatting code with . This will ensure that your main page will not break when we add the new ad unit.

I have drafted a main page using the new tags on User:Kirkburn/Dev which I hope you can take a look at - feel free to make a copy and edit it. Though the layout may seem restrictive at first, there really is a fair amount you can do with them - for example see these customized main pages -, ,. You may want to chat with your wiki community about what direction to take with a new main page.

If you encounter any problems with the new tags, please let us know.

My apologies for any inconvenience these changes bring. Thank you for your time,  10:13, 16 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Note, I know the colours are not the same as your current main page - however it would be fairly easy to emulate if so wished.  13:17, 19 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Is there a magic word for the skin/theme being used by the reader, so that (for example) we could change the background color of a table based on that, so it wouldn't clash?   Ryan W 23:47, 20 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Also, if Wiki_wide.png is to be discontinued, why is it used here?   Ryan W 17:41, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
