It's all, like, total square, dude! I prefer my mainpaiges with curves... DeltaStarSenior SysopSpeciationspeed! 10:37, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

See Talk:Main Page#Main page layout. Rounded doesn't work so well when everything else is square. -- Nx / talk 10:47, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, it's all or nothing with curves.
I prefer the inline "helpful links" as opposed to the ul. Occasionaluse (talk) 18:23, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
Inline would be wide and would leave a lot of space above and below, it'd also wrap sooner, looking bad. -- Nx / talk 18:27, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
I think the main header should be centered and one cell wide, like every other header on the page. Occasionaluse (talk) 18:54, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
The main header emulates normal page titles. -- Nx / talk 18:56, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
But it's not a normal page. This is more consistent. Also, I think all slogans should be one-liners. Occasionaluse (talk) 19:05, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
You have a point about consistency. I like the way the "fake" title looks and resembles real titles though. -- Nx / talk 19:19, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
I also don't like center-aligned stuff very much... -- Nx / talk 19:19, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, it's not like I'm crazy about it either. Left aligning is another idea, but it might get tedious/complicated with all the templates. Occasionaluse (talk) 19:25, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
I'm going to redo this to clean up the code, use css, and allow it to be skinned for vector and monobook/all other skins separately. My goal is to keep the main page the same for monobook users. -- Nx / talk 19:30, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
I thought left-aligning them would look bad, but it's growing on me. -- Nx / talk 19:36, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
What about altering the wigonav to better fill the width of div it's placed in? Occasionaluse (talk) 19:55, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
