Monobook can be customized in somewhat basic ways, [http://www.dkwiki.com/Main_Page see here], and previously on SmashWikia there was a skin change discussion that was closed. Now I would wonder if anyone but me was interested in reviving the idea?

::I basically agree, but I'd say that two areas should definitely be changed from the default Monobook - the background image, and the [http://www.ssbwiki.com/skins/monobook/user.gif little icon to the left of the user bar] (top-right of the page). Not drastically, but just to give SmashWiki some visual differentiation (use a Smash Bros. icon for the icon, and something relatively simple for the bg. ([http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u304/SomebodyED/SSBWikibg-2.jpg I've got this as my custom bg right now], but I wouldn't even have the Smash Ball in a "real" version, just the big/faint logo in the top left)

::::The logo as the favicon looks way too small and it is hard to make anything out in it. A blue smash ball would look better. Maybe for both the favicon and user image. Also, I like the background from the link. It would look good here. ☆<span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span>☆ 12:46, 13 December 2010 (EST)

:::::I support making the miniaturized logo the favicon, and I think a blue Smash icon would be more appropriate for the usericon.

==These?==

These seem to be the favorites. Anyone object? [NB: The [[Wikipedia:Favicon|favicon will have to be reformatted for use]]. *.ico isn't on the list of permitted uploads here].
If you want to test the usericon, add:
<nowiki>li#pt-login {background: url(http://www.ssbwiki.com/images/d/db/User.png) top left no-repeat;}</nowiki>
to [[Special:Mypage/monobook.css]]. - [[User:Reboot|Reboot]] ([[User talk:Reboot|talk]]) 11:37, 16 December 2010 (EST)

What's going on about the background then?
