(Drones' background falls towards that.) That means we can't simply go back to our previous background prior to the 10th anniversary because not only does it signify the celebrations regarding the 10th anniversary was a complete waste, it provides an inconsistency of the brand that disconnects this wiki from it's social media outlets - also making this wiki look unoriginal and bland compared to other Sonic sites like Retro (gold and grey), TSSZ (blue and orange), TailsChannel (orange and grey), and TSS (blue, white, red). Well, to me it doesn't matter as long as it looks good. I guess this is just a difference of opinion, I don't think that look was unoriginal and bland. It stood out from Sonic fansites because it was balanced and good to the eyes. The standards for design on this site has been higher than those sites for a few years now. Also, doesn't this look alot like TSS? Anything "that looks good" quite frankly is a vauge term. Anything can look good but the question lies if it's appropriate for the subject matter. In this unoriginalsing elements from previous Sonic games and adding said elements without any original flair creates a unoriginal design that says nothing about this wiki.
