Yeah, at first I thought that skin looks good. But now I can see its faults. Wikia Staff says Oasis will help finding new users. But on wikis where's one active editor (for example my Astropedia) reader will see in articles and images' signatures only one nick – so he won't join, because he'll think wiki is one person's page and won't want to disturb (I say about reader who doesn't know Wikia; Polish community is small and I know there's no people interested in astronomy). Next, removing Monaco. Really most people are keen on it and don't want new skin. Lots of wikis have really good appearance based on Monaco, why do you want to ignore them? When I see page when are more ads and less content, leave it and go on next. And I think lots of people do the same. Of course, Monaco has ads, but it's small percent of page. Some people here want to make an encyclopedia, not money for some company. Next, I don't see last 4-5 letters in line. Why? Last thing are special:recentchanges and special:watchlist. I prefer them than special:myhome and special:following. But where are links to them on Oasis? Wikia really can lose more experienced users than gain new.
