Forum:Possible new style and Main Page... Cast your feedback

You can't see it up on the normal pages because the last style I put up gave some users some issue with being able to see the tabs. So this time I used some per-page .css tricks to make it so that the style demonstration will only show up on a single page. So if you go to Main Page/1 you'll see a demonstration of both a draft for a new Main Page, and a new site style/layout. Go there and give some feedback here on what you think of the possible mainpage and what you think of the site style. ~Dantman(talk) Apr 13, 2007 @ 22:49 (UTC)

Oh ya, please ignore the fact that the boxes used on that Main Page are a bright cyan. I'm using the type-nav class which is used for all nav boxes and navigation tables using the box system from the WAP, because of the Animepedia that class is cyan by default, but unlike other classes I do allow this one to have it's colors customized for each wiki on which it's used. For example, the InuYasha Wiki is using the type-nav but there it's changed to a pink type color which suits the wiki. Similarly here that color class would be altered to one which fits in with the style. But because there is no style made here I can't just go and change the color codes yet. So just bear with the demo being that color, if people are fine with the site's color scheme then that color class will be changed around the time that the color scheme and Main Page would be put in place, probably a darker blue like the rest of color scheme. ~Dantman(talk) Apr 14, 2007 @ 02:07 (UTC)

That's pretty cool. I would consider, however, including some images of the villains of the series, such as Dr. Wily and Sigma. Also, a picture of Dr. Cain and Dr. Light might not be bad either. Looks good though! --Brahman 23:47, 13 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Could you point out some good images? I tried to pick out the most seen characters each from a different series I remember; Mega Man, X, Mega Man EXE, Zero, and Bass. Though, if you could find one around, even on here, a better image of X would be appreciated. It's annoying enough that there are no transparent images, but it's even worse when an image also isn't completely white.
 * Perhaps list out all the most notable villans and characters. Actually, it's also possible to randomize what image shows up. So if we're short for space we can make random sets of characters show up. ~Dantman(talk) May 14, 2007 @ 09:52 (UTC)
 * I like the idea of randomizing the images that show up- lots of websites do that. If we could do that it would make each visit to the site seem "special" in a way.  Anyhow, for villains we could have: Dr. Wily, Sungod (the bad guy from Mega Man V), Sigma, Vile, Dr. Weil, Serpent, the Bonnes (pirates from the Mega Man Legends series, although they are not "bad"), Dr. Wily (from the EXE series), and maybe Colonel Redips from Mega Man X: Command Mission.
 * If you've noticed I've been doing some work on the Mega Man classic series and the Mega Man X series, adding both story content, release dates, and some images. I will also go and update the character information sometime soon (I've done so with Dr. Light and Mega Man), and when I do so I can hunt around for some new images.  This is a very good project, but we need to flesh out and "profesionalize" some of the articles here.  Keep up the good work! --Brahman 23:15, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
 * What exactly do you think I'VE been doing, eh? I've been professionalizing articles, and I've done a few that really look well done. -- -{ Reploidof20xx }- (TALK) 06:33, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I've seen your work on the X and ZX series and it's very good. We need to keep it up and update more of the information on the characters from other series as well.  Also, some of the sub-articles are stubs or non-existent and need to be worked on.  Of course, it all takes time though so we just have to work on it when we can. --Brahman 17:26, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Is everyone ok with the site color scheme shown there? (Not the Main Page, the site layout) if everyone is I can make it the actual style for the wiki. ~Dantman(talk) May 18, 2007 @ 09:19 (UTC)
