From This Might Be A Wiki

Seeing right now? I'm confused, did Duke say your skin would become the default? -CapitalQ / @ / 20:31, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

No, i never said it would be the default...Just that we would make it "available" to people to use. I really really do like the new skin, but I'd say let's just make it available for a while, and get people's feedback. Thanks again Gena...it looks great! --Duke33 02:27, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
I can't make out any changes, except that the lighttext stuff doesn't seem to work for me. - Whirrrlwind (Woosh!) 08:46, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
You need to change your skin to 'TMBW' in Preferences. -CapitalQ / @ / 10:12, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
Oh, riiight. Trippy. Did you omit our trademark small font? I liked it.
  • The unvisited links aren't underlined, while the visited ones look really weird.

Some other stuff (that you've probabaly heard already, but organized recaps are nice):

  • Text within <h1> tags is not displayed, so page titles are currently not shown.
  • Since all links are black, differentiating between TMBW links and InterWiki links without hovering over them is impossible...there probably should be at least some minor difference.
  • Lyrics pages no longer use <pre> tags (since they cannot be styled on an individual basis or given a class anymore), but you can read about how we're doing it now (and help me with it) here. You'll need to put the MonoBook skin on to see what I'm talking about. :) -CapitalQ / @ / 11:26, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
This is a link to another wiki that underwent a skin change recently. You may find some clues for problem fixing there. - Whirrrlwind (Woosh!) 11:49, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Most of the above remarks should be fixed now... please repost anything I've missed or misunderstood.
And if you guys would like to see this as the default skin, I would love to see some support. (^_-) —Gena 21:38, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hotkeys

I noticed that monobook's hotkeys don't work with the new skin (such as pressing alt-e to edit / alt-s to save). Any ideas? Do you just need to include the monobook.js file? --Duke33 20:08, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Looks like they are working now. --Duke33 18:58, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] TMBW.css

Hey, just wanted to let you know that i created a wiki page MediaWiki:Tmbw.css, so that we can edit the css for your skin directly in the wiki. Let me know if there are mods you want to make. --Duke33 03:21, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
