I already checked in the CSS validator, no errors at all. Does this have to do with a recent wikia change? They were all working a few days ago, and my absent mindedness is to blame for not noticing exactly when they went poof! I do have a hint from this from December 3rd, it is gone in the screenshot, so I am guessing that's when I lost them? Any help is appreciated! --Liliana (my talk). 03:53, December 15, 2012 (UTC)


 * Can you provide links to the CSS? -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 17 Dec 2012 5:42 PM Pacific


 * Sorry I didn't know I received a response yet. Well, yes this is what I've had for at least a year in them:

 * I don't understand why a code will stop working like that all of a sudden. --Liliana (my talk). 12:34, December 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Can you explain what it used to look like, and specifically what part of the source code is not working anymore? I'm guessing it's something to do with the wm-1, wm-2, wm-15 classes. Eg, on the front page of the Marapets wiki, I see you have a -, and your wm-15 class just sets a background image - so what you've got there is a "-" character with part of the background image behind it. Did it used to load the entire image there or something?-- Category:Acer4666  17:42, December 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for helping, but no that's not it. That's been working in wikia wikis since the days of the Monaco skin, persistent piece of coding if I should say so.  Note all that this code affects (see image) works perfectly.  It is hard to supply an image of a piece of coding that is /NOT/ showing an image; when the image is not there.  But specifically, it is the line where ".WikiHeaderRestyle" and ".WikiHeaderRestyle .shadow-mask" should show this image on the background of the upper wiki menus here to be exact.  Sorry I don't have a working screenshot that I know of.  --Liliana (my talk). 01:26, December 23, 2012 (UTC)

Fixed
Ok guys I fixed it by inspecting the element in Firefox. I didn't think it would work but it did, they new element can be found here (latest revision of the file here) and the shadow mask does not work anymore it seems. Here is the header fixed and working as intended. Thanks to everyone who helped. <3

Unfortunately, I also caught eye of the menus. The unselected menus are supposed to look dim, they're not supposed to blend-in with the background. I will have to work on that now. --Liliana (my talk). 05:02, December 23, 2012 (UTC)


 * Again got that settled too (for now). --Liliana (my talk). 05:25, December 23, 2012 (UTC)
