User blog comment:Dopp/New Profile Design Now Live Across All Wikis/@comment-160529-20110828060102/@comment-3450419-20110828180509

This is week-old news already. I spent a whole day crafting that CSS mod for Kirby Wiki - It doesn't make it prettier unless you style it to do so via custom backgrounds or gradients, it just makes it smaller and more compact. The whole thread about it is here.


 * 1st (pilot) version for Kirby Wiki
 * Subtank's variation for Dead Space Wiki
 * 2nd final version for Kirby Wiki with floated tabs for empty (Wikia calls it zero-state) profiles. Make sure you set the z-index for the header drop-downs as mentioned here or it will violate ToU. All three linked CSS examples below have since been updated to match this particular implementation.

As far as I know, only Kirby Wiki, Dead Space Wiki, and Criminal Minds Wiki are using the CSS, and all three do not violate ToU.


 * Kirby Wiki css
 * Dead Space css
 * Criminal Minds css

Wikia seems to like certain things big. I'm sure they have their own reasons for doing that as much as we have our own for making it smaller. Actually the text in there are the same size as your wiki's headers 1 and 2, but you can always let loose CSS (Firebug ftw) and make things look exactly the way you want it to just as long as the function remains intact.
