:-).. I hear you... wiki.mozilla.org looks great ( web 1.0 with rounded boxes ) how do I go about creating something like that? Does it require writing my own style sheet? Or are there ones out there that I can use / modify..
Thanks much, AJ

Something which has round edged boxes, shadows etc?
wiki.mozilla.org ? (BTW, I don't think that web 2.0 should be considered as web1.0-with-rounded-boxes )

you've got to define your own skin (see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Skins, http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_styles and some other places on meta and mediawiki.org). Mozilla seems to use a skin named cavendish (see the source code of wiki.mozilla.org) but I have no idea what the cavendish.php file looks like (maybe it's just a re-named monobook.php, maybe not). I guess that if you ask them (or ask google) they will tell you more : http://actsofvolition.com/archives/2004/august/newmozillaorg

BTW2 : I think that wikis are web2.0 (collaborative web-based software is one of the features of web2.0) so wiki.mozilla.org is a 2.0 with rounded corner ;-)
this was really helpful... i have some digging to do..
thanks a ton!!
