I'm not sure why it would be discouraged, though, if AVGN Wiki's CSS is only the internal CSS site settings that will override some of Wikia's presets. The "vignette" url I used was from Wikia's own internal image server, not leeching someone else's external bandwidth. You also can't script malicious things in CSS, just potentially break the basic Wikia UI, which I know not to do.

Thanks for the information, Sr.Shenanigans. Wikia is meant to be easy for the average (non-technical) person, but the best stuff is always under the hood.

It would help if there were tutorials on the more advanced aspects of CSS web design. Unfortunately, when viewing the source from a browser it isn't clear what CSS is specified by Wikia and what CSS was specified by the admin(s). Or, perhaps it is easy for someone more experienced with CSS, since I'm just a beginner.
