Okay. I have presented your suggestion spiff to my wikia and we had had time to go it over. Overall, we think your new background layout is indeed colorful and vibrant. However, the majority think that it would only be relevant for as long as Sonic Mania is. Instead, we were hoping something more permanent. Genesjs himself put it in these terms:


 * A layout that is more "neutral/universal" in design (as in something that doesn't apply to any particular game/media in the franchise) would work better in terms of longevity, and it would be easier to make something more unique in appearance in general if we aren't trying to emulate any characteristics of any specific works in the franchise, like in the case of Sonic Mania for this first suggestion here.

We have seen that you have gone more in the direction of Sonic Mania. Now, we hope that maybe you could design something that goes more in the direction of Sonic's official website (namely the lower blue half) with the decorations Luma.dash suggested here.

Furthermore, I believe we are in favor of a certain motif for the Sonic News Network wordmark: something based on the motif for the Sonic the Hedgehog series' logo.

Thank you for taking your time to help us, and thank you for your aid.
