This skin is laid out using <nowiki><div></nowiki> blocks placed using absolute positioning. This turned out to be a pain in the ARSE to get right. I wish I had gone with tables to begin with (as I did with the [[CMR MediaWiki Skin]]). Anyway, it's done.

You'll recognize the four elements (mentioned at the [[Skinning MediaWiki]] page and the [[CMR MediaWiki Skin]] page) on pages with this skin:
* MediaWiki navigation links
* MediaWiki action links
* Page action links

Layout

This skin is laid out using <div> blocks placed using absolute positioning. This turned out to be a pain in the ARSE to get right. I wish I had gone with tables to begin with (as I did with the CMR MediaWiki Skin). Anyway, it's done.

You'll recognize the four elements (mentioned at the Skinning MediaWiki page and the CMR MediaWiki Skin page) on pages with this skin:

  • MediaWiki navigation links
  • MediaWiki action links
  • Page action links
  • Banner/logo image

These are shown in boxes:
