The wiki intentionally doesn't allow JavaScript or some CSS for security reasons. I think background-image falls into that category, along with any CSS that would alter things outside the content area, div.mw-content (i.e., the menu bar, page title, etc.). The wiki is a MediaWiki, not a personal hosting service. Smile

As a side note, just so everyone knows if they're not aware, all contributions to the wiki are licensed under CC-BY-SA or the XIV Materials Use License, depending on what they are. Image art (in the File namespace) is the only exception and only if the license is mentioned in the upload description. Nevertheless, "you grant this site and its administration a non-exclusive, perpetual, non-revocable license to store and redistribute Content in the course of its normal operation as a forum and wiki."

Ah thanks for the clarification, that's what I thought. I don't mind much and i'm already happy with my thing. I like to experiment with the graphic side of things. I was already surprised that the wiki allowed such liberty.

So it the template in the templates page on the wiki under Suen still a template allowed to be used as it is different now? I originally was creating my wiki page from the original one it was and when I noticed it changed I rather like the layout (although I would add my own graphics and style to it so not to copy) but I just wanted to clarify if it is still a free to base off template. Thanks! Smile

I have basically zero template of my own created behind. I'm using the "fancy template" that was created by someone else and that a lot of people use already (the original one is linked at the bottom of my page in the broken formatted link, and should lead you to a native blue themed page).

I have heavily modified the layout to suit my tastes with ad-hoc modifications, layouts, etc, but that's it.

So anyway, go for it! If the layout I did can be of any use, feel free to use it.

Just note that mine is still under a lot of work and is changing a lot currently. Also, take care since i'm not creating my own templates to make things clearer, it's a bit dirty or messy at places, and just overall convoluted...
