<!--Add your intro here-->
Alright, I know our last temporary theme change (for the release of Supernatural) wasn't discussed on-wiki, but I felt that this one should be since it may be a bit more controversial.
Line 40:
::::::::I was talking about using the recolored plumbbob image as the header image (replacing the Sims mosaic image). I definitely think we should use the snow theme as the background... and if you've got an idea for what to use for the header I'd be interested to see that too. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy, after all. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LiR</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">speak</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">read</font>]]</sup>''' 00:00, December 10, 2012 (UTC)

::::::::::I guess the snow is kind of making the browser slow, too bad. Just a thought, whether the current theme color should be light blue (winter-y) or red and green (Christmas-y)?

:::::::::::The snow effect is mainly there for cosmetic purposes; it's not necessary but it looks kind of dull without it. I'm not sure how (''if'' it's possible) to add code to a personal JS file to disable the snow completely if we do add it to [[MediaWiki:Wikia.js]] but if it's proving to be problematic then I'll look into it.
 
:::::::::::As for the theme colour scheme, I say we may as well go for a Christmas theme just to tie in with the holiday season and to cater to as many as possible, although light blue may be better for the snow effect - either option works for me.
 
:::::::::::Finally, I don't mean to rush things but I would like to see this thread concluded within the next few days so we can implement the theme ''before'' Christmas has been and gone. {{LabSig}} 12:10, December 14, 2012 (UTC)
 
== Conclusion ==
'''Closed''' - Okay seeing as this has died, I'm just going to be bold and implement the theme as it is. I've switched the colour scheme to an evergreen and red combination (CSS is conflicting with the wiki navigation bar) and added a couple of snow images to the slider, one of which contains Christmas lights. Currently we don't have a Christmas logo and anyone who wishes to create one is welcome to. Also, a snowy image of [[Monte Vista]] would be appreciated. {{LabSig}} 14:17, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
