Does anybody else think that the default skin could be improved immensely if it simply used a different font?

Yes. Though I dislike other things about it, too.

Agreed, perhaps change the flower image too.

I told you, if anyone wants to work on themes, let me know and I can setup you with FTP access to screw around with making your own theme all you want.
EDIT: Or, you could do it yourself. Aparently, everyone can edit their own CSS to be used on the site. More info here.

This page is full of undefined links that need adding and a whole bunch more terms like them. However, this is the only page that references many of these files so it doesnt appear in the WantedPages.

Ill add it to community page.
Making the site look how you want may be good but if someone is new and just visiting the page they wont know how to do things like that.

The idea is, is that you, as a user right now, can make it look pretty. Once you do that, I can easily add it to the true themes lists and maybe set it as default.

I'm looking, but I'm not seeing where to edit my CSS.

| The current skin looks ok to me apart from the mediawiki logo. To me the font looks like what every other webpage on the web uses, even this forum.

By default, everyone starts with the Monobook theme. Thus, to edit your local CSS:
http://wiki.minegoboom.com/index.php?title=User:your_name_here/monobook.css
If you want to use the empty skin to start anew, use the 'MySkin' theme and the following:

Egad, people, PLEASE do not save once per minute for twenty minutes (looks at I88gerbils), but if you really really must, use the "Minor Edit" option so we can clean them out. Also as mike ahs been asking, use the Summary field and make a comment about your changes.
*again looks at I88gerbils*

I'll look into making an option to ignore changing user's CSS files and enable it by default. Should clear it up nicely.
And i88gerbils: if you'd like to merge some of your ASWZ's wiki data into here, feel free. Like the page about VIE, all I did was borrow something to fill up space for a bit. Your history recordings are much, and I would love it if you would fill it into here also.
It seems as if the ASSS Wiki is anything but ASSS.

Don't worry there is half a page of Nikegurl edits now, all regarding the same page.
Pests and me almost managed to get a whole page of legitimate recent changes, but then Dr Brain changed something when we only had to make 3 more changes  .

I88gerbils:
If your planning on having everything in template.sss on the wiki I could probably write a script to parse out everything and create all the pages.

For that site, I'd seriously hope you know about ln. I already know you don't know about pngcrush because a few test images I ran knocked the file sizes down 50%.
As for the gifs, I'd recommend making them transparent. If you don't have access for it, I'll plan on uploading a copy of them to here. Not too big of images, once you cut out 50% of the fat without lossing anything.

| Oh man, guess what I found. Mine Killer's flash website. Oh how bad it looks. Of course, that was 5 years ago, with myself being only 16 years old, and that being my third attempt at flash.

I know of both of those.
I stopped working on the stuff before I got around to running the png's through pngcrush.

A set without the black would be useful - never got around to that, either. For images to be used in the wiki, though, I would leave the black, since that is their natural state (or present them all normally and transparent'd). (or just use some transparents to explain how the game deals with transparency)
