Timwi-
However, I object to your changes to the standard
skin.
Well, the whole point is optimizing the defaults, not giving users yet
another choice for what are miniscule variations -- most of the changes
are in the stylesheets, not in the skin code. However, each change can be
easily reverted if it upsets too many users.
I liked the thick borders because they showed very
clearly where the
actual article is. (I have slightly bad vision.)
That should be easier now because the navigational elements use a
different font size from the main article.
I also think the
article heading is too small now.
I think that's just an initial impression because the original headings
were quite huge. In reality, I only changed each heading size to the next
smaller level.
I don't like the border around the footer
I'm not completely happy with it either. I had problems getting the same
box around the top table, because that table is much more complex. I'll
fiddle some more with it and if I can't make it work I'll remove the box.
because the previous way was cleaner and more
consistent with the look
of the rest (the top for instance). I don't like the light-blue colour
of the bottom box because it looks bad in contrast to the yellow
background of discussion pages.
There is no yellow background of discussion pages ;-). The fact that the
strong contrast between yellow and white makes it hard to come up with a
global color scheme for things like TOC, boxes etc. is one of the reasons
to change it. Note that if you're not logged in, you'll probably view a
few cached copies.
