Forum:Can this wikia get an upgraded theme? The current one is beyond ugly.

For starters the serif font should not be used on websites. It makes things harder to read and doesn't look nice either. Neowu ☎  19:59, September 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Your argument is completely subjective. I have no problem with either the appearance or the legibility of the current font and the fact that this wiki has not been consumed by anarchy suggests that the vast majority of people are in the same boat. I do recall that I was not immediately taken with it, but it has grown on me and I wouldn't favour a change.-- 20:20, September 30, 2012 (UTC)

What I said is subjective yes but I think a lot will agree that it looks very sub par and outdate when compared to other wikia themes, few examples:

http://mspaintadventures.wikia.com

http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com

http://onepiece.wikia.com

http://harrypotter.wikia.com

I actually avoided this site for a long while because of how it looked which is a shame because it has a lot of useful information. Neowu ☎  20:31, September 30, 2012 (UTC)

The only thing which i think needs updating is the front page. The rest of the site looks so good imo. Its a shame that the front page is so... Meh. Imamadmad ☎  11:43, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

I usually avoid a site if I'm not interested in the content, and am not too concerned with how "cool" it looks. That being said, you only have one specific complaint, the font, but the rest of your "criticisms" are vague words that don't give a lot of information. Instead of saying the site is "ugly" or "subpar", why don't you give some specific criticisms? That way your concerns can be discussed. Shambala108 ☎  14:59, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * The initial complaint here is somewhat invalid because the site uses sans-serif fonts and serif fonts equally. They indicate different content. Serif is used almost exclusively in the main namespace only in content areas.  Sans-serif is used everywhere else.  The type of font helps new users know what kind of page they're on, and is not purely cosmetic.  Got any other complaints?  14:58: Thu 04 Oct 2012
