For proposals for skin projects and coordination see Skin projects

This page is a showcase of the different user styles that can be achieved using the new MediaWiki skinning software. Please showcase your best work as a screenshot and maybe a new skin will be offered as a choice to users. Please provide links to your monobook.css, monobook.js, upload a screenshot, and then add your listing according to the format below, 

==Your skin name (or some unique section name)==
* '''[[ro:User:Your user name|]]'''
* '''[[Your username/monobook.css]], [[Your username/monobook.js]] (or link to their locations)'''

Koinu's Iconic Menus

File:Iconictabs.jpg
Koinu's Iconic Tabs!

Well, I was reading over in Skin projects that one thing people were looking for were replacement of menu text with icons. So I sat down earlier today and got to work on them. I made eight icons - just enough for an admin view of the upper tab on the page, and threw down a little JavaScript (inline) to swap out the words for the icons. The bulk of the action there is generated by a simple HTML parser at the top of the template file. Yeah, you only have to edit ONE file for this tweak. Sorry I'm not better at drawing icons, but they are okay for samples :).

File:Articleicon.pngFile:Discussionicon.pngFile:Editoricon.pngFile:Lockedicon.pngFile:Unlockedicon.png File:Moveicon.pngFile:Watchicon.png
(Please note that you will need a few additional images to make a complete set for even the top bar. For example, "Special Page" tab, or "unwatch".)

To get the source you can go here: User:Koinu/Koinu's Iconic Tabs

  • NOTE: icons images with my naming conventions are in your wiki root folder. feel free to modify. the source page you modify is the PHP file in the /skins/ root folder, not IN the /monobook/ folder

Lupo's minor tweaks

Somebody's got to start this gallery going... my changes are mostly minor tweaks addressing the issues criticized most. The skin works through a combination of Javascript and CSS—both are required because the CSS contains some formatting that will only work if the JavaScript runs. I have only tested this on my own browser, a Mozilla 1.4, Gecko/20030612, and only on Win 2k (the OS the machine I'm using for Internet access is running).

It's nothing fancy, but I'm much more comfortable with it.

The CSS file is at User:Lupo/monobook.css, the Javascript at User:Lupo/monobook.js. Use at your own risk!

 
Village Pump on en:

The screen shot at the right illustrates the main changes my CSS/Javascript combination does:

  • The links are underlined, and their color scheme is something akin to the old look.
  • The "user links" have moved from the top right to the sidebar (the "personal tools" box).
  • The interlanguage links have moved from the sidebar to the top!
  • Only articles in the main namespace have a white background, all others (such as the Village Pump) get a light blue background.


 
An article
 
A talk page

These screenshots show the background color difference between the main namespace and the other namespaces, and also the link styling: blue underlined for internal links to existing articles, red for links to non-existing articles, brown (no underline) for links to stubs, and teal (and no arrow icon!) for external links. The talk page also shows the bottom tabs.
Note that the bottom tabs purportedly don't work with IE. To not use them, just comment out the line reading "bottomTabs();" in the Javascript file: "/* bottomTabs(); */". (Or see User styles for how to do a simple version of the bottom tabs for IE.)

The CSS also reduces the whitespace in tables and the sidebar.

I'm looking forward to more elaborate re-designs! Lupo 08:31, 4 Jun 2004 (UTC)

TillWe goes serif

 
Village Pump on en:
 
An article

I too am looking forward for more elaborate skins, but while they are not showcased here, have a look at my tweaks (Cyrius' personal toolbox on the left, standard link colors, and a combination of sans-serif fonts and a serif font for the main text (lists a bit smaller). One important thing: only pictures etc. go to the ultimate right of the screen, the text itself is "8em" from the right border (because it isn't easy to read long lines). Different colors for different categories of pages aren't implemented, because I hope they will be changed wikipedia-wide, soon.

 
A talk page

This is more a sketch or a proof of concept; you can find the code at en:User:Tillwe/monobook.css if you want to have a look at it. It works for me on Netscape 7.0/Win98; I haven't tested it and there are some ugly bugs I haven't bothered to fix yet (like longer discussions becoming very small with big borders on both sides). -- Tillwe 14:45, 5 Jun 2004 (UTC)





Bluebox

Howdy, kids. Ever since User:Gwicke added the MySkin preference in order to allow people total css control, I've been fooling around with different things. I'd like to say that I came up with something really original, but what I've got is basically monobook with few slight differences and some color changes. The "blue" colour that is so prominently featured in this design is #3399ff. Anyway, the stylesheet is at en:User:Blankfaze/myskin.css. If you want to see what it looks like in person, just copy that into your own myskin.css file and select MySkin in your user prefs.

Differences in Bluebox from MonoBook:

  • Blue. All borders and the default link colours are #3399ff.
  • Personal toolbar is more of a "bar" with a border on top and bottom.
  • Logo, tabs, and content area are resituated to accomodate.
  • Tabs are right on the left edge of the content area instead of slightly indented.
  • Unselected tabs are a light grey (#eeeeee).
  • Links are underline on hover only.
  • TOCs have different bg colour and have blue border.
  • All link colours are different, except for new and stub links.
  • Footer has been moved so that it appears to be part of #content.
  • Minor changes in the searchbox portlet so that it doesn't look so cramped.
  • Minor changes in formatting with the headings and the margins below them.

Known bugs:

  • Looks horrendous in IE (but then again what doesn't).

Milky

File:Milky.png
From the mainpage of en.
File:Milkyedit.png
In an edit window

Skin whose colours are semi-based on a webpage i once made, and carries the same name Milky is supposed to be more smoother in all colour blending than the default MonoBook, the colours are my own but various other parts are pulled from User styles and modified. It is still under development, this version should not be considered final; if anyone wishes to improve it a bit then please do so, but keep in spirit of the original and ask about any major changes on the talkpage first.

  • Changes
    • Removes underlined links in #BodyContent
    • Most borders are round in Gecko-based browsers, however this is barely noticable and less intrusive than the samples at User styles.
    • Dotted borders around pre are now solid
    • Userbar has been moved to the left with the rest of the bars
    • Yellow as an active colour and around the GFDL notice has been removed
    • Some copyright notices such as the one in the GFDL notice and on edit pages have been removed
    • The #footer ( container for the GFDL notice and others ) is now as wide as the #BodyContent and right-aligned
    • Bullets now change colour when they are hovered over, this replaces the underline-hover on the menu
    • The search box is gray when not :focused on, in the style of mozilla.org
    • Editsummary box is now further from the editbox
    • Submit button fonts are gray until hovered, then black
    • ...And many more 12

Ultrawaffle

 

Changes:

  • Round instead of boxy, fewer distracting lines
  • Large, readable serif font
  • Warmer color scheme
  • Various... check it out for yourself

Warning: This is a hack-ish work in progress. Among the known bugs is the fact that it for some reason only works in Mozilla.

Thetorpedodog's Tweak Miscellany

File:Torpedodoground.png
Tweaks in action (Mozilla 1.8 α3)

Updated 2004-11-09!

Me My style No JS

I went through some of these great improvements, including the rounders and the scrolling <pre> enhancement, and I made a few improvements that really do make the entire appearance quite a bit better.

  • Got rid of the lines on the left of the toolbox on the left side, making it look more like the article (just coming out of the side)
  • Gave the user toolbar a background and a border (with MB colours!)
  • Got rid of the spacing between the toolbar links, and added a border
  • Added the option of putting something like an avatar up there (it can be hosted off-site, too!)
  • Add a little more round to everything!
  • More coming eventually?

Bugs?

  • The bugs aren't in this. They're in Internet Explorer ;-). This really doesn't even do anything in IE.

Do you want to bark at me about these tweaks?

P8's Monobook adjustments

 

Changes:

  • Highlighted and increased the size of the most used buttons: the edit/history tabs
  • Lowlighted the right menu
  • Removed bullets from menu
  • Highlighted the search buttons
  • Darkened the footer

Fosfori Verdi (Green Phosphor)

 
An article

Hello, here is my skin. I tried to emulate the look of those old IBMPC monochrome monitors (well, not exactly the same look :-). Most of the stuff is the same of the old monobook.css, the changes are on colors. Oh, and I added action tabs to the bottom of pages, too.

Bugs :-(

Since many template boxes set HTML colors on their own (black on white, in general), some pages can show nasty white boxes. Alas, the text in them is still readable, with a bit of effort...

  • UPDATED october 2005

Skin version 1.1 eliminates some of the nasty white boxes around and add a "more tools" box in the side column for customizable, user-specific links (e.g. the user sandbox, some help pages etc.)

Saltspring Ecovillage Education & Development Society

File:SEEDS Skin.jpg
Saltspring Ecovillage Education & Development Society main page

I'm much better at PHP and MySQL and even HTML than I am at CSS, so this became quite a challenge.

In particular, it was a major pain to get certain things transparent and to lower everything below the banner. I wanted to adopt the look-n-feel of the home page, which included the rainbow background and a banner. I managed to plop the banner in nicely, and everything moved down nicely except the user/login info, which over-wrote the top banner!

After a couple hours of snarling and fooling around with a nice CSS editor I'd never used before (CSSEdit for MacOS X, available from MacRabbit for US$25) got the background transparent and moved the user/login text down the proper amount.

Since the text boxes are now over a background, I also gave it a shadow to make it stand out more by adding a gray right and bottom border. Subtle, but I like it...

FratMan

fraternitymanuals.org skin by jasonpearce.com

Frankly, I found skinning the site to be challenging. Once the XHTML, PHP, and CSS gets better separated into their individual structure, designers will really enjoy creating new skins. To get the design I wanted, I had to modify all three (CSS/XHTML/PHP). You can download my modified monobook skin from my personal site. This skin was designed for FraternityManuals.com.

Based on "#Fosfori Verdi (Green Phosphor)" above. The idea is black, blue, blue, and blue - with a lot of complementary neutrals and browns. A golden wikipedia logo, etc. Easy on the eyes - even moreso IMHO than FV, which I used for a few weeks. See how long this one keeps me happy...

How can this be true ??

User:Astronouth7303's floading rounds

Sources: en:User:Astronouth7303/monobook.css, en:User:Astronouth7303/monobook.js

Inspired partly by Wikiwyg, this stylesheet/javascript does several things:

  • Rounds corners (Gecko only)
  • makes the article, footer, actions, and userbar "float", so the sidebar and background are static.
  • Adds the "+" tab (new section) and "0" tab (edit intro) for pages that don't have one.

Screenshots coming soon Notes:

  • Only tested on FireFox
  • A few bugs to work out
  • I hide the language box (TODO: Make scrolling)

Get_It's small changes

Info
  • Only tested on Firefox
  • CSS
    • Changed p-personal
    • Changed p-search
  • JS
    • Added CheckUsage tab on "Image" namespace pages
    • Added Blockip tab on "User" namespace pages

Toykilla's Heavy Makeover

File:Toykilla wiki skin.jpg

Note: This skin is still in development, but it is now near complete.

I began with the Monobook skin and heavily altered it. You can still see the Monobook roots.

I wanted everything to blend together, so I took the styling from our forum skin and applied it to the wiki.

Notes:

  • there are a few minor bugs and changes to work out
  • Navigation bar is being changed
  • Developed for Firefox, with fixes for IE being applied in a separate style sheet

You can grab the altered files here:

Essjay's MonoMonobook

 

I've made a number of useful changes, especially for admins. The description is a bit long for this page, so I have compiled it here. That page provides a full description of the functions, along with a large number of screenshots.

Voice of All's Admin Monobook

 
RfPP automatic de-lising.
 
Notice the warning tabs and the other, now abbreviated tabs.
 
A diff page.

There are no major appearance changes in this modification, this is for utility/usage purposes. Some of the pictures to the right are a bit out of date though.

Monobook.css

  • Adds rounded corners (mozilla browsers)

Monobook.js

  • Vandal warning tabs added
  • Vandal rollback added (in addition to rollback)
  • Quick protection/unprotection tagging and WP:PP listings
  • Quick WP de-listing
  • Purge tabs added to project/user/category pages
  • Interiot "edit count" tabs added for users
  • Block log link that shows when a user has been blocked
  • Protection tabs named better
  • Auto-AFD lister
  • Auto-AFD closer
  • Auto-AFD article talk page notices
  • UTC clock in upper right corner
  • New links added to toolbox, like WP:AN, WP:3RR, RfPP
  • RfPP quick responses
  • WP:AN/3RR quick responses
  • Last diff tab added
  • Auto-Copy vio tagging
  • Lupin's Popups
  • Lupin's filters
  • Edit top tab
  • Other minor changes (some to make tabs fit)

Note: This script is designed for admins, and it was designed for Mozilla; the vandal revert does not work on IE.

Monobook Handheld

I don't have a screen shot - it looks terrible in a full browser. I simply tried to neutralize everything that would make the stuff hard to use on a handheld. This is just a first try. But it makes articles much easier to read. The main page has a big table on it, so that doesn't look too good.

Clean and Blue

This is a typical page (notice how clean it is?) This shows the colors in the different version page (I think I may change that red)

I started with Essjay's skin, tweaked a few things, put up my own wikipedia logo (that was a little joke - I'll likely change it), changed a number of the colors and got rid of a lot of things that I find annoying about wikipedia (like the copyright notices, the fundraising header, the special characters on the edit page and a few other things). There may be some problems with the logo in Internet Explorer, but I think the skin works really well in Safari and Firefox.

I still have some work to do on it, but it is really cool that you can do things like this just with CSS! Please let me know if you see anything that should be changed/fixed.

Topaz's Wikiscripts

I have a whole bunch of function libraries for developers and one real module (at the time of this writing) which adds a panel under 'toolbox' on the left side of your screen to update User:YourUserName/Status for Online, Busy, or Offline. Full descriptions and installation instructions are at en:User:Topaz/Wikiscripts.

Tlogmer's EasyReader

 
The dynamic multicolumn layout is cool, but needs work. (Notice also that moving the mouse over one item in the table of contents also highlights related items.)
 
The paragraph that the mouse-pointer is over shows strong links; links are less intrusive in other paragraphs.

This is a tiny CSS file that introduces subtle interactive cues; you can use the whole thing, or any part individually.

The most obvious change is that links are less intrusive; there are also options (off by default) for double spacing, text width, and (most coolly) a multicolumn layout.

Two Columns. Help?

The multicolumn layout doesn't work very well, which is why it's off by default -- it works great for some long articles, but tends to squash short articles, break long article beginnings (all those templates), and totally fubar the main page.

This could be easily fixed -- just put a new DIV around all the text below the table of contents (for example) and have the 2-column CSS act on that. (Better yet, put a div around each top-level section of the article and only apply the CSS if the section's long.) Unfortunately, I don't know javascript, so I can't do this myself -- let me know if you're willing/able to help. Thanks, Topaz! Tlogmer

Celestianpower's AdminTools JS

 
The tabs when viewing my userpage

My monobook is mainly just a compilation of loads of useful scripts that I've found round and about. It doesn't look particularly pretty and is Spaghetti code but, for admins, I think it's invaluable: saving time on warning, AfDing and much more. This has only been tested on the English Wikipedia and using Firefox, so I can't vouch for other wikis or browsers. Also, some of the features are very personal to my needs (link the link to w:template:Ea-welcome, so will need to be removed.

List of features

Hit Counter on top of Monobook

 

Renmiri 08:23, 15 February 2006 (UTC)Renmiri Just a tiny tweak on the layout, but it shows you where to add text or content to the top header line.[reply]

To add stuff to the header just go to Monobook.php and find 

<div class="portlet" id="p-personal">
	  <h5><?php $this->msg('personaltools') ?></h5>
	  <div class="pBody">
	    <ul>

And add your stuff right after the UL tag, in my case: 

<?php if($this->data['viewcount' ]) { ?>
<li id="f-viewcount"><?php  $this->html('viewcount')  ?></li>
<?php } ?>

<?php if($this->data['numberofwatchingusers' ]) { ?>
<li id="f-numberofwatchingusers"><?php $this->html('numberofwatchingusers') ?></li>
<?php } ?>

User:Omegatron's fixed sidebar

 
This script and CSS makes the sidebar stay in position while you scroll
 
The footer still looks good and doesn't overlap. You can see the language box has a scroll bar when it gets too big. This way all the navigation stays on the screen

As far as I know, no one's done this before. One of the things I really liked about the classic skin is the "fixed sidebar", which stays on the left hand side of the screen as you scroll. I used javascript to restructure the page a little and then css to keep the sidebar in position. See Help:User style/floating quickbar.

I've also got a bunch of user scripts. The good ones end up getting developed into better scripts by other people, which you can find elsewhere, and the others aren't stable enough to describe here.

There's also a few tweaks, like removing the logo and crossing out the upload link so I remember to upload to Commons instead.

My main code is on en.wikipedia; see en:User:Omegatron/monobook.css and en:User:Omegatron/monobook.js. I've got a short command on every other wiki to include the code from there, so I only edit the en version and all my other wiki skins stay in sync. See User:Omegatron/monobook.css and User:Omegatron/monobook.js. (The upload crossing out is counteracted by a line in my Commons css, for instance. See Commons:User:Omegatron/monobook.css)

CSS based Tooltips -proof of concept-

 
tooltip in action on mouseover
New
To add a tooltip (on en, meta) use:{{tooltip|visible|hidden}} where "visible "is the visible text or links, and "hidden" is a comment that shows on mouseover. A good idea for how to use these is to give a short lookahead preview for the top paragraph of a related article.

This is a tooltip example

Features

  • Enables the use of tooltips (see image) in Mozilla and Opera (does not work in Internet Explorer)
  • Can't be used really, because it has some glitches, and what is worse: it shows the text of the tooltips in the print-version of the page.
  • With a change to the common stylesheet and maybe some improvements it could be workable.
  • Can be added to every stylesheet (not just standard.css)

Crissov

Features

  • better tables and lists
  • readability enhanced by maximizing line length and constant line height with <sup> and <sub>

Written for and only tested in Opera 7.

===MonoClassic===

 
Finlay McWalter's MonoClassic

Features

  • Smoother, simpler than regular classic (most boxes and lines are gone, replaced with space).
  • Incorporates a cool gray look and a modified version of monobook background, while retaining classic's nice UI and readable fonts.
  • Works great on Opera and Firefox. Tiny glitches on IE.
  • Fixes classic's horrible image flow issue (when compared with monobook) - adjacent rfloat images now stack vertically rather than horizontally.

This style works in Opera, Firefox and IE.

  • The interlanguage, categories links and personal tools have moved from the sidebar to the top.
  • Duplicate Views and moved to the bottom.


Simple skin

 

This is a simple, non-flashy skin. It uses your browser's colours for background, text, links etc. Tested in Konqueror but should work nearly everywhere. Uses a 12pt Serif font. Also works well with monospace fonts for an even more minimalistic feel.



MiniMenu

 

This is a skin designed to only use a very small part of the screen for navigation elements, to be used on small screens. The menu at the upper right shows the submenus when one hovers over the menu items. Categories are shown at the upper left. Tested in Mozilla.

>This is actually broken in 1.7.12 under Fedora Core 3.

I designed this to add a bit of colour to things. The background image and the picture in the upper-left corner could easily be changed to provide yet a different look.

This skin works in Firefox and in IE6. I did not test the final version in Opera.

The CSS is functional, but not elegant. I simply took the stocky myskin.css file and made changes to it in order to achieve the look I wanted. I did not streamline or clean it up. Therefore, there is quite a lot of extraneous stuff there.

Dusk MediaWiki Skin

Heavily influenced by the great WordPress theme by Becca Wei Dusk is a good blend of valid XHTML/CSS and twilight colors. Untar into the base of your wiki directory to use. News about the Dusk skin will be available at Icebreaker.Net.

Note: Reported IE problems are now fixed in the main dusk.tgz package --Gregory S. Hayes

I just installed mediawiki version 1.6.1 and noticed I was getting "Call to undefined function: wfnomsg() in line 118 of Dusk.php". It appears that function has been removed, at least from 1.6.1 so I just copied it from a previous mediawiki version into the dusk.php file to get it working. It's a small and simple function:

function wfNoMsg( $msg, $wfMsgOut ) { return $wfMsgOut === "<$msg>"; (sorry can't get amp lt; to render in wiki so look at the edit page to see the actual code) } Hope this was an acceptable place to post this message. Jimkloss 10:56, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My first theme :)

I think it's a special theme because I've put every Toolbox and Views links in a <select> box

You can easily use the theme for doing a website.

It's based on the css of monobook and CSS boxes (on google).

Colors are based on the default drupal theme. Tell me if you like it and how to improve it.

- Download it from here (Why the hell someone always delete that link)

Because savefile.com deletes files that have not been downloaded in the last 14 days ;-) Renmiri 08:23, 15 February 2006 (UTC)Renmiri[reply]
