We have a new update to our wiki's theme. Lots of changes and improvements were done.
See: http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/WikiDesign/modern-CentOS
It would be nice if you could test it, and report if that is what you want to our wiki.
If you found mistakes in the page above, correct them please.
Thank you very much, al.

Oooh pretty. Which version of Moin are we using for this 1.5.x or 1.6? I would like to see how this theme was put together to alter my wikis to be as ncie as this.

Two things.
Ermm, make that three:
a) Shouldn't that thread be in centos-docs?
b) The background (the small squares) do make the wiki look like upstream's website. I have no idea with what to replace them at the moment, maybe you or someone else has an idea?
c) Great work! Thank you very much!
Cheers,
Ralph

oops!!

Maybe with a no so small one but so big either ... take a look at wiki page above, we have created a section to select which background we'll use. Other propositions are welcome, of course.
c) Great work! Thank you very much!
Well ... how could I fix that ? :D ... Thanks Ralph.
Cheers, al.

Tiny circles of the exact same dimensions and colors!

Personally ... since "CODE" does NOT follow the artificial boundaries and shows up OUTSIDE on the borders, I think we should not even put artificial boundaries on there.
We are wasting screen space for absolutely no good reason and more than half the pages go outside the boundaries anyway.
I think we should get rid of those all together

Not from an ergonomic point of view. Long lines of text are stressful for the eyes and make reading harder.

We have discussed the width of the boundary at least twice in the past. Several people felt the current one was taking up too much screen estate. I still think that it should be made narrower (at most 5% on each side). "Long lines of text" is easy to solve. Just reduce the width of your browser window.

Not to turn this into a flame session ... BUT :D
I set my screen at a very high resolution specifically SO I can fit more stuff on the visible page. I know how I WANT to read websites.
You can always make your browser be smaller to SHRINK the lines to whatever size you want ... however I CANNOT make your artificial boundaries bigger at all.
SO, why would we FORCE a certain page width on people if there is no technical reason why it is required.
OBVIOUSLY it is not desired by everyone ... and if we fail full screen then you have another option. But if we fail 1/2 screen the people who want it like me have NO OTHER options ...
I'm just saying :D

I agree.
We added these two alternatives (See modern-CentOS wiki page). One with 5% of margin and other without margins at all.
