Converting main page to CSS
Hi all,
I'm afraid that I thought I had a solution to this issue, but when I implemented it I broke the main page :-( I am rather sorry that I did that. However, it is possible to convert from tables to divs and apply styles. Given that HTML should be about structuring information, and not really about layout, I would like to see a lot more div tags and a lot less table tags!
Our current main page is actually quite hard to skin. For instance, I wanted to include, in my own css file, line-spacing changes. However, these changes break the main page for me. If the main page had the infoboxes in div tags, then it would be a lot simpler to implement this change.
A trial is currently at User:Ta bu shi da yu/MainPage2, there are significant problems with my markup, however. If anyone could help, I'd much appreciate this! - Ta bu shi da yu 02:20, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- I'd be overjoyed if people could help you with this. (and converting the Community Portal and Help:Contents redesigns into CSS layouts too). -Quiddity 17:36, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Image size recommandation
Is a policy on image sizes will be good? I was pushing the use of thumb in an infobox discussion, and I think the flexibility of a size not specified in pixels is better. --Marc Lacoste 09:56, 28 August 2006 (UTC) To content my opponent in this discussion, is anybody knowing a trick to not show the borders of a thumbnail?
