We admins have been sent a message about Wikia's proposed new look. I've been familiar with it for a few weeks since I volunteered to help with the Beta testing. The rest of you can see an update and link to a trial roll-out: http://community.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Sannse/Important_Updates_on_Wikia%E2%80%99s_New_Look
There won't be an opt-out provision but we will be able to tinker with colours and fonts a bit.
I've said some of the above in a message to our mailing-list, but you don't all see that.
I like the changes except for the savage reduction in article width. Down to 55% of my screen width. And a few things don't appear that should, but that's probably teething-trouble, fixable.
