GuildWiki talk:Wintersday/Wiki decorations

So I'm Mr. Fancy-pants, eh?
The only thing I see there that would qualify as "fancy" is the snowballs. The icons and site background are simple to change and the icicles can be done in CSS (I think). I'll poke around to see if there's any "rolling snowball" snippets I can copy, and I'll keep an eye out for anything else that might be interesting. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 06:38, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I didnt realise there was a page for it. Me and mendel were talking about this last night :P. &mdash;[[Image:MaySig.png]] Warw/Wick 12:16, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

I suggest several links to this page as a special wintersday treat to the dudes on Gwiki. =P--Darksyde  08:13, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Get Maui to come back, and I'll support you.[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 16:52, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Avoid the Javascript snowballs (cringes as I remember the 90's). Background as snow sounds great. --rage_italic 18:55, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

This is a rough picture, but I wanted to know if this is what you were talking about &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tenetke (talk &bull; contribs) 23:09, 30 November 2008 (UTC).


 * Maybe the snowball only on mainpage, updates, community portal, admin noticeboard? And recent changes? :-} That Logo looks awesome! Sold! --◄mendel► 23:18, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The snowball shouldn't appear anywhere that it might obstruct reading. So not recent changes imo. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 23:25, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, then it could roll down the sidebar? --◄mendel► 23:32, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Scrap the snowball and make js snow fall on the main page.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]] Entrea   [Talk]  00:06, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * ^ that [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 00:09, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * (edit conflict) I was just gonna pop in here and say that I found a snowfall snippet we could use: . The same idea could be adapted for a rolling snowball, but I prefer snowflakes, too.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 00:10, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * See Snow for less cartoony flakes. --◄mendel► 02:31, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank for putting it in a box like that. I have no idea how to do it myself. Also sorry I forgot to sign beforeTenetke 02:54, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * !! Wow! That logo is pro. Nice job :) For teh snow, I think that lightly falling snow would be nice...the "flakes" would need to be small enough not to make page unreadable, of course. If we wanted to do a snowball, then there is this big white space to the right of teh content which is normally used for sidebar ad - we could put it there maybe?
 * One issue I have with the iycecles right now is that they are "on top of" the rest of the content, so they obscure the site notice and stuff. Any way we could do "send to back"? (or find more transparant ones?) But anyway, good work on everything so far. :) [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 04:20, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Warwick thinks she can fix that, she's going to try tomorrow. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 04:33, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Snowflakes
We have snowflakes! Only enabled for Main Page/editcopy at this time, you'll probably have to force-refresh to see it. Let me know what y'all think. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 05:31, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, that looked a lot different in my mind...I thought they were going to be smaller and on the boxes. Something like [[Image:MP_thingy_Ereanor.jpg|thumb|this]]. Also, I made a little play with colors, you can work on it if you're interested, Mr. Fancy-pants.[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 05:47, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * It's not working for me, even on force-refresh and purge. Is this one of those "go and clear the whole cache" times? Or it doesn't work for IE? Or your .js is interfering with some other .js ? (the favicon isn't working for me anymore) [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 05:48, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it's fixed now. My wiki-coding skills are kinda rusty.[[Image:Ereanorsign.jpg]]reanor 05:52, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * A main problem is that you can't click on links behind them.(Icicles)--Łô√ë [[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg|Fear.]]îğá†ħŕášħ 05:54, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Well my wiki coding skills are nonexistent, but I like the icicles. Is there a way to change them so that you can click on the text behind them though? I can't wait to see what it will look like with the snow effect. Tenetke 06:39, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
