If I may make a suggestion, instead of a white background, how about a thick white outline around the shield and the word Battles?
Sorry I can't do that.

Or if that's too difficult, seeing how there's a shadow in the logo, changing the white to the really light blue the rest of the wiki has?
You mean like this?

 

[Antvasima]

I agree that the light blue background might work better though.

 

[Ryukama]

If I'm understanding what Derp is saying correctly, this is what his suggestion would look like.

 

[Sera_EX]

Isn't the wordmark supposed to replace the "Vs Battles Wiki" text?

 

[Ryukama]

@Sera I tried with Joke Battles, you can't leave that text section blank.

 

[VenomElite]

Yeah, I tried it on TBN. Doesn't work. You can only change the text.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, if anybody knows how to replace the header with the new one that has light blue background, feel free to do so.

If it does not look good, we can try the white background instead.

 

[Ryukama]

@Ant I tried doing so.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you.

 

[Ryukama]

No problem. Do you want me to add this one then? Or use the white one/try another one?

 

[Antvasima]

It does not show up for me yet.

 

[Ryukama]

If you mean the image didn't load for you, here it is again.




If you mean it doesn't show up on the Wiki, that's because I haven't changed the theme yet. I wanted to know what you want first. Blue background, white background or something else?

 

[Antvasima]

I meant that it has not shown up in the wiki yet. Light blue background is fine thank you.

 

[Ryukama]

Alright then. I have added it to the wiki. Refresh and you should see it.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. I have taken a screen capture. You can try with the white background as well, so I can compare.

 

[Ryukama]

Done.

[Antvasima]

I have a hard time choosing between the two images, but am leaning towards the one with a white background. What do the rest of you think?

 

[Ryukama]

@Ant I personally think both would be acceptable solutions to this new layout problem. You're free to chose which one you like better of course.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, I suppose that we can start with the one with a white layout, unless several staff members reply here that they prefer the other one.

 

[Ryukama]

Sure thing.

 

[Antvasima]

Thanks again for the help.

 

[Ryukama]

Not a problem. Like I said before, happy to help you and the site.

 

[Utkar22]

With the new header, aesthetically, this wiki looks solid!

 

[Ryukama]

@Utkar22 Thanks

 

[SITHISIT]

Am I the only one who really hates the new header?

[Antvasima]

On second thought, the top of the page now says "VS Battles" and "VS Battles Wiki" next to each other. It looks redundant and inappropriate. Perhaps we should remove the header in its entirety for the time being?

 

[Ryukama]

How about just having the logo then?

Something like this or like this.

 

[Golden_Void]

The logo on the header looks out of place, that giant white rectangle is killing everything up there. Everything else is way neater though 10/10.

 

[Antvasima]

I think that the second version, with the small logo image, looks better.

 

[Ryukama]

Would you like me to add that one then?

 

[Antvasima]

Sure. Feel free to do so.

Yeah most wikis now have that problem. The Mass Effect wiki has the Mass Effect logo and "Mass Effect Wiki" next to it....don't know why they prevented the wordmark from replacing the original text.

 

[Sera_EX]

@Ven

Because you can change the text. It doesn't have to say "VS Battles Wiki", it can say "Debating Index" if you wanted. The wordmark also doesn't have to say VS Battles. It can say anything. Depends on what the administration want for their wiki.

 

[Antvasima]

@VenomElite You can contact the Fandom staff about the issue if you wish. I have already sent them two requests today, so it may be inappropriate if I send a third.

 

[VenomElite]

Never mind, Sera's right. An admin could simply change the text on their wiki; forgot about that.

 

[Ryukama]

@Ant I added it.

 

[Antvasima]

@Ryukama Thank you.

@VenomElite How do I do that?

 

[Ryukama]

No problem. I made one last possibility. It's the shield with no white background, but a slight shadow so the blue doesn't blend in entirely. It's whichever you like better.

I should mention that, with the new logo, the chat has a very weird flattened version of it.
