U.S.S. Starchaser Wiki
Hello, I have 2 little projects, one is simple and the other complex.

I'm looking to add a category tree like this one one on Templates wiki but i can't figure out how to reuse it. I plan to use it here ...

The complex thing includes a Game Item Icon, with a rarity overlay image, and a popup on mouseover. This is depicted perfectly right here [and conveniently for the same game].

Edit: *flails* omg! JoePlay! It's YOU!!! <3 *goes FanGirl*

Clean up
Hello, it's my first time doing this, so I don't really know what I'm doing or if the staff can do this or not. I have this Wiki called Fanon Fairies. So it's quite messed up, so I thought can you clear up all the pages, images, templates and MediaWiki? I'd like to totally start again. Clear the main page too. Thank you so much. You guys rock!

Auslly & Raura Fan Wiki
Hi, this request is from NikkiSarah. I am the founder/bureaucrat from the Auslly & Raura Fan Wiki. I need a background for my wiki. The old background is not fancy and very boring. The one other thing I need a wiki wordmark. The current one is very unspecific and outdated. I want the background to be bright and have a happy, relaxed feel to it. The wordmark I want it to have the wiki's name "Auslly Raura Fan Wiki" on it, the background would have to be transparent because I have a header behind it, I also don't want the letters to be too big.

Girl Meets World
Hello! I was hoping you could help me with making some christmas-themed pictures. I've requested here before (this and this) and as explained above we'd like if you could help us make those two pictures more christmasly? I have some ideas. This is the background. Maybe you could add some gingerbreads to the background, add some wreaths or christmas hats to the characters or something like that? If you could, it'd be great if you could change the paper plane all the characters is in, to presents? Like, christmas presents. Also, could you change the background from wallbricks to something christmas-themed? And then also again, could you change the blue on all the characters names (Cory, Maya, Riley, Lucas etc.) to this red color: #C21F1F ? :-)

Then the header. This is the header. Is it possible for you to change the size so it fits the nav bar without touching the nav bar so it doesn't get cut. If that doesn't work, could you use this and change it to something christmas-themed? I'm thinking you use the same background as the background you use in the background, if that's okay with you. Maybe you can add wreaths or christmas hats on their heads or something like that?

Also, on both of these headers. Is it possible that you change the blue in Girl and World to a red christmas color and the purple around Meets to a green christmas color? I'm talking about the logo.

Thanky so much if you want to do this. Sorry for writing this so silly! :P We'd really appreciate this! :D

New logo for TESFanon redesign
Hey! I'm the active administrator of TESFanon. I'm currently giving the wiki a much-needed lift, and would really appreciate a revamped wordmark to accommodate the new colors (I lack the photo editing skill, however). The image I'd like to have converted into the site's new wordmark is File:Eso-logo-flat.png. If I could have the word "Online" replaced with "Fanon" in the exact same style where it looks as though it belongs, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! --Pikapi (talk) 23:29, November 29, 2014 (UTC)

Hi, I was wondering if you could make a mainpage for the wiki as the one that we currently have is kind of boring.

SNK Wiki
Greetings to the board! The SNK Wiki needs a graphic overhaul, especially regarding a background image. I was wondering if you could help us by creating one? I wanted the background to feature the following characters: Kyo Kusanagi, Terry Bogard, Ryo Sakazaki, Haohmaru, Marco Rossi, Iori Yagami, Kaede and Athena Asamiya. These last three are of somewhat lesser importance and not necessarily needed on the picture, but appreciated if their inclusion is possible. Thank you for your attention and service.

Writing and Roleplaying Guild Wiki
I'm quite certain our wiki meets the minimum requirements. With most of the users on the wiki either busy with life or more focused on actually writing and roleplaying things, I find I don't have the time I'd like to clean up and freshen up, and since we've gotten over 200 pages and growing and a spotlight, I'd really like to clean the look up.
 * 1) The problem with the following two "wish" items, is that because our wiki is such a broad topic, I have absolutely zero idea what to do for images
 * 2) Better logo maybe, same font style
 * 3) Better Background image
 * 4) Colour scheme (maybe keep browns and whites but add in something to contrast nicely)
 * 5) css/js clean up
 * 6) Top nav bar organisation

Thanks :)

New Tricks - Infobox help needed
http://ucos.wikia.com

Hi there,

For a while now I have been having issues with getting the infoboxes to display at the very top of an article - any tophats on the page would shunt the infobox downwards.

CzechOut was able to tell me why it was happening (something to do with max width and text-wrapping).

However, after lots of trial and error and looking at similar templates from other wikis, I still haven't managed to fix this - could you please help??

Thank you very much,

Scott

Austin & Ally Wiki
Hi Development Team! I have a very important (and slightly urgent) request for the Austin &amp; Ally Wiki. We would like to have a new background for the Holidays and we would like your help to do it. As far as I know, we fit the criteria (admins agree to this, Special:UncategorizedPages has just been cleared). We have two versions of a background that we'd like for you to try for us. :)

For the first version, we'd like for you to take the current background and add cute little Santa hats to the characters' heads. We'd like the background they are in front of to either be replaced or combined with something like this: http://www.roomwallpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Christmas-Red-Wallpaper.jpg It does not have to be exactly that, we just definitely want snowflakes scattered about the background behind the characters. Then, finally, we would like some tiny Christmas ornaments to be scattered about the background. :) Hopefully this isn't too much!

For the second version, we would like to have the same snowflakes with the red bricks as the promimnent background but instead of the characters in front of it, we'd like to have enlarged Christmas ornaments with pictures of the cast on them going down the background. The ornaments would look like this: http://www.clipartpal.com/_thumbs/pd/holiday/christmas/Christmas_tree_decorations_large_T.png (doesn't have to be exactly that, you can also make them silver and gold colored) And the pictures would be placed on much like how the pictures are placed on these ornaments:

I'd like you to use these pictures to put on the ornaments: Feel free to stop when it visually is too much. :)
 * ,, , (any cute image from this gif, maybe two),  (any image from this gif),  (any image from this gif), ,  (mainly just the logo), , ,  (if space allows),  (if space allows, the bottom picture), , (if space allows),  (if space allows)

Thank you so much! This is pretty urgent as the Holidays are nearing and we need this background up for a good amount of time. Version two is the background that we're more leaning towards so it'd be great if you started with that. :) Sorry for the longevity of this, thank you for everything! :)

K.C. Undercover Wiki
Hey! First off, I would just like to thank you for even doing this kind of help for wiki's off all communities. I am here today because I need a little bit of help with a background and header design. You see, when it comes to designing backgrounds and headers, I am probably one of the worst people I know at doing that sort of thing.

Our Wiki is for a new Disney channel show, K.C. Undercover, starring popular Disney actress, singer, and dancer Zendaya. I would love to get a new background and header design sort of focusing on this image.

I believe our wikia if fulfilled of all the requirements.

Removing lines from side bars
Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to remove the lines that surround the "Recent Activity", "Photos" and my custom right sections as seen here: http://elliegoulding.wikia.com/wiki/Third_album_(album)

A good example of the no lines for the sections include: http://ldra.com.br/2014/12/divulgadas-as-novas-musicas-de-lana-del-rey-para-a-trilha-sonora-de-big-eyes-novo-filme-de-tim-burton/ and http://www.katyperry.com.br/2015/katy-perry-retrospectiva-completa-de-2014/

One more thing, how do you remove the line outside of the wikia which shows you the layout boundaries? I don't want any outline of any page so it will look like: http://www.brits.co.uk/news/taylor-swift-ed-sheeran-and-sam-smith-to-perform-at-brits-2015 or http://ldra.com.br/2014/12/divulgadas-as-novas-musicas-de-lana-del-rey-para-a-trilha-sonora-de-big-eyes-novo-filme-de-tim-burton/

Bella and the Bulldogs
Hey JoePlay, so this is another request for another background. I'll tell you how it will look:

I want the background to look like the website with the three boys and girls in the left side with the "Bella and the Bulldogs" logo down the blonde girl. The "TV G" tag has to be removed and the rest of the background has to be the same blue like in there. If you can't do it exactly the same, then you can just put the blonde girl in the left with the "Bella and the Bulldogs" logo. If you can do it exactly the same, then it's better.

Hello Wikia Team, I am the current Head Admin of the [airmech.wikia.com/wiki AirMech Wiki]. This is the first wiki i have ever worked on, and in just a few short months i have taken over and really given it a nice overhaul, in my eyes. Now while it's not complete, I'm confident that with my newfound knowledge of Wikia thanks to your many helpful sites and videos, as well as my knowledge of the game, that i can finish my improvements.

What I would like to ask for is some help with the background and main logo for the site. I would like to use This Picture as the background for our site, however I couldn't get it to properly update. If you could help out with changing that, it would be a big help.

Also, the main picture, the "AirMech Wiki" logo, is a little outdated, and i would love it if your team could create a custom logo for our page based off of This Picture. Let me know if you guys can help me out with these issues. Thanks --EagleAirmech1 (talk) 22:23, January 14, 2015 (UTC)
