Allow me to be the first to say that the Wiki rocks.

Seconded

That's cool, but I hate how it looks. :?

[David]

Thirded.

Perhaps more use of color for separation.

What's a "wiki"?

[corbs]

why don't you make an official wiki and get it hosted by wikipedia?

Wiki-wiki is the Hawaiian word for quick.

Wiki Wiki Web sites are sites designed for users to be able to make additions or edit any page of the site. They often have a common vocabulary, and consider themselves a "Wiki" community.
 But in this case it is also an excellect concept turned into reality !

Agreed. It might be worth considering using a more modern wiki software such as...

So far I've kept the formatting on the extremely simple side, so migrating to a new wiki wouldn't be very difficult.

Or, the current Wiki (UseMod) can be made more visually appealing by appying a style sheet. All of this requires a system administrator to make some changes, so I've just been focusing on content for now.

Thanks for the feedback guys and please contribute if you feel so inclined.

I was wrong. It doesn't require admin access to add as stylesheet. Take a look now. I applied a very simple stylesheet. I'll look around and see if I can find any better ones.

[robotboy]

Crap. The stylesheet feature only applies to your local browser, and it doesn't change things globally, so you won't see any changes unless you click on preferences and put this into the stylesheet box at the bottom and press save.

Or, just check out the Wiki page I just made about it.

I'm pretty sure that Aron can ask whoever admins this server to apply a decent looking default style as well.

The Wiki is about CONTENT, not looks. Some people feel the need to color a white piece of paper, some don't.

Please feel free to ADD to the Wiki.

VERY nice!!

I feel identified with the 'wiki' concept regarding websites. Tonepad is an example of a 'colored wiki' I think  :shock:
