thoughts and issues[]
Firstly, the color of the words Navigation and Toolbox is yellow and currently hard to read. I'd like to change it to the "color1" i think its called which is a color dictated by the choice of the precise monaco skin used (blue for sapphire, green for jade, etc). Second, the links in the toolbox should be of the same style as the links in the navigation menu. Next, someone suggested having all the top links (page, discussion, edit, watch, etc) all on the same side instead of on opposite sides. Also, the "Request a new wiki" link is very awkwardly placed. It should be in some new style and not directly above the page link because it can be annoyingly accidentally clicked on. —♥Jedi♥Rogue♥ 18:05, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- I am unable to make the colors of "Navigation" and "Toolbar" to be class color1. From my CSS ability, I can only have it be a fixed color, which has to look
goodat least somewhat readable on the different themes. - Due to the DOM structure, the only general way via CSS to put the page tabs on the left side of the edit/etc tags is if the edit/etc tags are floated right (the alternative is forcing a specific left-side margin for the edit/etc group, but that gets really messed up when the text length/size are customized.
- For toolbox/navigation styles, I would like to consider the opposite if consistency is desired. I find the coloration of the toolbar links help me quickly pick out the links I use more often.

- The DOM thing with the tabs is fine. I think its ok where it is, personally. Where is the definition fo rthe "toolbox" and "navigation" thing because I couldn't find it when I looked before. As for the links, Because of teh size of the toolbar and the size of the text, theres alot of white space next to the words on the toolbox section and its kind of clumbsy to click on them. Its significantly easier to work with teh style of links in the navbox. —♥Jedi♥Rogue♥ 18:23, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
- The definitions are at "div#navigation:before " and "div#link_box:before" in MediaWiki:Monaco-common.css/Monobookization. As for the styling of the toolbox, I was mostly championing for keeping the link coloring (like regular links to show if I have recently clicked on it). I am not sure which component of the styling makes it less clumsy for your perspective, but if you are talking about something different than what I am championing to keep, then I (probably) have no problem with changing it(-: -User:PanSola (talk to the ) 23:44, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
- The formatting I would want to add to the toolbox is the java styling on the nav menu which gives it mouse over effects and lets you click on the entire label instead of just the word. It makes it easier to work with and provides uniformity. —♥Jedi♥Rogue♥ 18:05, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

User Customizing Monaco[]
See Help:Customizing_Monaco for an explanationhow to customize your main nav and toolbox. Our main nav should come preconfigured with what's currently on the Main Page, if we can. --◄mendel► 00:12, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
