LostInRiverview passed your message along to A morris and myself. Since I recognize that the question is not whether to add the image to our main page, but where, I suppose that placing it in the right column would cause the least disruption. Also, I suppose that, technically speaking, it is being featured, so there's a certain logic to placing it in the "featured content" column.

:Since the promo was to end on November 21 and it's now November 22, will you - or can we - remove this image? [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 16:49, November 22, 2010 (UTC)
 
== The Late Night promo blog ==
 
Joe, I don't want to do this, but I am seriously considering putting a semi-protect on the Late Night promo blog. I'm considering this because it seems that the worst offenders wrt profanity and the like have been anon users. I don't want to do it, because it would be restricting a class of users due to the actions of a few. Still, if that's what it takes to stop the anon abusers, and it looks to me like it is, I will do it unless you as Wikia staff tell me not to.

:please disable commenting on this blog because anons and new users keep using inappropriate words on it.--[[User:Monster2821|Monster2821]] ([[User talk:Monster2821|Talk]]) 16:26, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
::I have to agree. I've even tried semi-protecting it, but unfortunately protections don't apply to blog ''comments'' so apart from disabling comments or deleting the blog altogether, there's not much I can think of to stop this. I've been deleting really bad comments, but I think the only thing the administrators can do at this point is adopt a zero-tolerance policy on that specific blog, and start issuing blocks for any amount of spam. The blog is such a huge mess, and the admins here have so little power to do anything about it; '''please do something'''! --'''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 19:32, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
:::Monster and LIR - please see my message on [http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Dharden#RE:_The_Late_Night_promo_blog Dharden's talk page]. I just deleted a few comments myself and will continue to help out for the rest of the promotion. In the meantime, I will certainly pass on your feedback to the organizers of the promotion.

== Re: Platinum badge event done ==
 
Thanks, Joe. We did have a [[The_Sims_Wiki_talk:Community_Portal#Discussion of Achievements|vote]], and decided not to keep the achievements system. I did notify Wikia through Special:Contact, and it looks like it's already taken care of, but thank you for offering.

== Semitransparent background ==
 
Thanks, that's insanely helpful. A couple other things; I might propose to make these visual changes I've been working on wiki-wide, so I am trying to get it visually "ideal" before I do. I've noticed two things I may wish to adjust. First, there is a horizontal gray 'bar' in between the 'header area' (where the wordmark and menus are) and the 'content area'; do you know how to get rid of that or change it? Additionally, I'm thinking about the other background you made (the Sims 'mosaic') and possibly checking out what that would look like in the header area; do you know how to change the header background individually? The code on my wikia.css page changes the header and content areas simultaneously.
 
You've been a tremendous help through all of this. Thanks a ton! -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 03:20, June 29, 2011 (UTC)
:Yeah, the mosaic is a bit 'loud'. It might also help to highlight the dropdown menu buttons (currently they're transparent). I've added some code to my .css that I borrowed from [[w:c:fr.sims|Les Sims Wiki]] which makes the buttons a solid color, and it works for the time being. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 17:07, June 29, 2011 (UTC)

== The background...again ==
 
Hey JoePlay, sorry to bother you like this. As you may be aware, [[Special:ThemeDesigner|the Theme Designer]] was updated with a transparancy option, which conflicted with our translucent background. I've removed the translucent CSS for now until we can find a solution (it's still in the page history if you want to see it). We've made [http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/The_Sims_Wiki_talk:Development_Portal#Background_issue this post] on the Development Portal regarding this issue and I'm wondering if there is a way we can get the transparent background back to the way it was before the update. Thanks in advance! Regards, {{LabSig}} 00:01, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
:Ah okay then. Thank you very much for your help! :) Kind regards, {{LabSig}} 17:07, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
 
== Mosaic ==
 
Hey Joe, sorry to bug you but I thought you would be the best person to ask about this. You probably would have noticed that our mosaic header has disappeared due to the new navigation bar, which will eventually become mandatory iirc. I was wondering if there was a way we could still get the Mosaic to work while using the navigation bar (I looked through the CSS and I couldn't find anything :S). Thanks! {{LabSig}} 23:09, October 11, 2011 (UTC)
:Our wiki is attractive again! :P Thanks for your help! :) {{LabSig}} 22:57, October 12, 2011 (UTC)
::Oh, may I ask you something? When I go with my mouse on the navigation bar the options of it don't appear, I can just click "On the Wiki" and no option will appear. :c Do you know what happened? Thank you. --[[User:RoseGui|<span style="color:orange">RoseGui</span>]][[File:Thanks rose.png]] <small>([[User talk:RoseGui|<span style="color:orange">talk here</span>]])</small> 17:26, October 13, 2011 (UTC)
 
== Header ==
 
Hey JoePlay. Sorry to bother you like this, but it seems that our mosaic header isn't long enough anymore, which causes it to repeat, resulting in a very odd appearance. If you're not too busy, could you create a new header that is able to repeat while looking like one whole image? —[[User:Random Ranaun|<font color="#008000">Random Ranaun</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:Random Ranaun|<font color="#00FF00">Talk to me!</font>]])</sup> 05:42, March 9, 2012 (UTC)
 
==Re: Request for help==
I've [[Forum:Wiki theme redesign#New theme discussion|started a discussion]] about the new theme. Perhaps you could go there and say hello? This is mostly going to be a community thing, so I don't have any particular answers for you as far as how the theme should look. - '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 17:49, June 26, 2014 (UTC)
 
== Template:Infobox Sim ==
 
[[Forum:New infobox design|Here]] the wiki community is discussing a new template design. My question is is there a way for the new Sim [[Template:Infobox Sim|template]] to have a portable draft that changes nothing from the original visually? Thanks for your input!
