The time is once again coming for spooky costumes and lollies. Should we recycle the theme used last year, or should we come up with a different logo for this year? We definitely have to change the background, since the main wiki background has changed from what it was last year. We should resolve this discussion soon, before it's too late (sounds so dramatic, but yeah). Thoughts? — The Tim Man (TSW • AH • MGW • Contribs) 05:09, October 5, 2015 (UTC)

I was thinking of maybe using the same colours as last year, but just changing the background so that it matches the main background that we currently use. I wouldn't mind a different set of colours from last year either, but they would need to be dark (or cold) colours of course, minus the orange for the halloween pumpkins obviously. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 08:38, October 5, 2015 (UTC)

With the new Spooky Overrated Stuff pack out, we could potentially have some ideas/images from in-game for a spooky-themed logo. If we can't decide, however, we can always use the old theme as a last resort. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 11:13, October 5, 2015 (UTC)
I'll be honest, I know next to nothing about themes, but I wondered if it might be a good idea to incorporate some Halloween-y images from all 4 games? That way it's not too Spooky Stuff-centric, as I'm not sure if many people will even own it. Vpetmad (talk) 16:25, October 6, 2015 (UTC)
I'd advocate reusing last year's theme and logo. That way, the discussion isn't unnecessarily extended. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 20:15, October 7, 2015 (UTC)

I have photoshopped in part of a render from TS4:SS into the logo and recoloured both the logo and the background for a Halloween theme. How does it look? — The Tim Man (TSW • AH • MGW • Contribs) 10:36, October 12, 2015 (UTC)

Looks alright. But I was thinking, maybe we could make the purple quite a bit darker. Not a lot darker, but quite a bit darker. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 10:45, October 12, 2015 (UTC)
I like the logo and the background. We should also use orange and purple in place of the normal colors for {{Headerblue}} and {{Headergreen}}. -- LiR talk • blog • contribs 14:05, October 12, 2015 (UTC)
