I am for this new design as long as we make templates go with it. We have many templates that are outdated (infobox, continuity headers...), If keep them the way they are then it will make us look unprofessional. It would be for the best our templates are as good looking as our design.

I also think you should consider implementing the ideas on this thread. It makes the wiki look more fluent.

In addition, to commemorate 9/11, we should change out background to black and make our logo black & white with a black ribbon with it on that day (it's the ribbon used to commemorate 9/11). We need to make it clear though factually the wiki started on that day, we do not observe or celebrate it on that day. Yes on everything you've said. I second that yes on everything SilverPlays said. As for SonicTheHedgehogDude's suggestions for the site's new look, I think they look pretty decent -- simple and effective. But these are just for the Wikia skin only, correct? Can any of these suggestions be implemented for Monobook skin users, or can variants be created that'll look largely similar to what is seen in the templates/screenshots, with possibly a few unique designs we can brainstorm on that'll look good for the wider format of Monobook? I don't know about Monobook though. Mystic did suggest if Monobook should be switched to Wikipedia's Vector skin, while I'm divided if we should still keep the classic background or switch entirely to solid NewsNetwork Blue shown on my first screenshots above.
