Episode page changes? Yuk!

Those pages had a better visual impact when the episode info box and screen cap were aligned to the right of the page, opposite the contenets box. It now looks awkward and uncoventional and a little amateurish. The original format was superior. If anybody agrees could it be changed back? I wouldn't know how to so I'll leave that to someone else! :-) Jxh487 10:11, 21 August 2006 (CDT)Jxh487

Yeah. I know. Change the the "bsgbook" for now. I am working on it as fast as I can. ;-) --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 10:30, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

Can a MySQL query be done to change everyone on Myskin to BSGbook? --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 10:37, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

Nope. :( --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 10:38, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

Well... One can. Just means Joe has to do it. --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 10:48, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

No, I have access to the database, execept the way "preferences" are saved it can't be done. --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 14:47, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

Other tidbits!

It was more intuitive when the search bar was below the Navigation panel, as this means you don't have to scroll down to quick search. The first characters of the headers on the panels for Projects and Community, respectively, are not capitalised. Headers should always be capitalised. Also the links bar on the left seems narrower than before, it looks squahed and clunky, the BSG logos before each header could do with a black blackgrnd, and my final nitpick is that these logos push the headers out of their centering, so perhaps a left-handed alignment would tidy it up! -) I'm sorry that I'm moaning rather than actively rectifying these faults, it's just that I havent a clue as to how to change things! Thanks, James. Jxh487 16:34, 21 August 2006 (CDT)jxh487

To sum up the ideas.. move the "search" below the Navigation "box". What links? Are we talking "In other languages"? Some links are just long and they are stuck in those sizes of boxs. The boxes will never resize. I am sure about the little icons. The icons seems to be fine for me without a black background. Are you using I.E. or FireFox or Other? The "upper" case I will get someone to fix. I noticed that also. :) --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 16:39, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

The upper case issue has been fixed. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 20:07, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

I'm using the black background and all the icons have a really ugly blue background behind them. Maybe a transparent background? --Talos 20:24, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

What skin are you using? bsgbook? myskin? monobook? --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 20:37, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

Myskin but BSGbook has the same problem. --Talos 21:16, 21 August 2006 (CDT)
