Forum:Infobox design change

What do you think of the new Infobox design I've been working on? Trying to improve the visibility for transparent images, the near black background of the current design makes a lot of them hard to see. -- Porter21 (talk) 18:46, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Looks good, but the colours are a bit too bright to me - the white borders are just too much. I liked the Mk I very much, but looking at it overall, somehing like the main menu in the sidebar (aesthetically) would look good and coherent with the aesthetic (no black but rather the shades of green present in the sidebar). Also, we need more patterns like the one in the background. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/thumb/5/5c/Scribe.jpg/15px-Scribe.jpg Tagaziel (call!) 19:20, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I see your point - I also like the current design but the black background really is no good for transparent images. I've gone back to the original design and tried to stay closer to it, I think it's now a good compromise. -- Porter21 (talk) 12:35, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

That actually looks pretty good. Far easier to see than the older one. Good work!--Kingclyde 00:28, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Looks good to me, but how about making a forum page for comments/suggestions? Ausir 10:07, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

I've now reverted to a less radical design change, think that should be enough to improve the image visibility (which is my primary concern; nearly all of the FO3 armor and weapon pages use transparent images now). See User:Porter21/Infobox MKII (I've also added links for comparing the image visibility). -- Porter21 (talk) 12:48, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
