Welcome
Welcome,, to the Central Wikia!

We are a friendly community here; most of us are active on an individual Wikia, and many of us are active on more than one.

If you're looking for help, use the Community Portal or Help Desk. If your wiki needs something done, leave the details on the Volunteer Portal. If you need assistance from a member of staff, leave a message with one of the Community Team.

You can get live help from community members and staff in our IRC channel. There are also channels for larger Wikia and their communities. Here you can socialise and get to know your community!

If you have an idea for a new Wikia, please let us know! Check out new wikis and see if any of them interest you. A directory of existing wikis is also available.

Finally, please keep an eye on the recent changes to see what the community is up to and to help reverse spam and vandalism.

porting monobook to Monaco
Hey KyleH,

I'm actually in the middle of using my semi-limited knowledge and understanding of CSS to port it over. As I mentioned on IRC, Angela set us up a testwiki for doing some customisation on. I'm partly through it, still need much more to do. :)

As for the front page, I was thinking more of a modular design akin to wowwiki's. Means we can expand a section or have a large poll, without worrying about other sections stretching have having massive spaces in them. :)

There is a bit of a design on the test wiki atm, but more than willing to change it. Also, the header background is only a temporary thing atm that I'm messing about with.

Monaco skin
I saw your comment on the RuneScape wiki Yew Grove about using Monaco. Personally, I like monobook, and I know most users at our site do. It's just simple. However... I'm really liking Monaco now (Quartz, not at all). I started to create my own Monaco skin and was actually hoping to maybe present it to the community once finished as the Custom Monaco skin for our wiki. But, I don't know CSS, so a lot of my work has been taking things from other wikis (FFXIclopedia being the one I'm referring to, which you also suggested =]) and from a personal monobook of one of our users, adapted from a Common version I think mostly created by Richard1990 (but again, we like plain monobook, so the custom one didn't last long). But I have some issues and I was wondering if you could help, or refer me to someone who could. I know there's a staff meet-up going on, so the people I've tried contacting in IRC have been busy with other things. =P What I have so far is here and what it looks like is this. I'm aiming for something like this. Links on that first bar are what I need help fixing, and the links up top where it says "Gaming" next to wikia, because that's only visible because of the monaco skin I have set in the background, I know if I changed it to say, "slate" or something, it wouldn't be readable. Links in and TOCs are blue and hard to read also. And, if there's any way to insert a temporary logo, just as a way to test things out and see how everything looks when experimenting, I could use that help too.
