I like the colors & layout of this current setup, & this to me in all honesty seems to be something of lets try & fix something that isn't broken. Um, excuse me, but the background is the straight-up logo of Elder Scrolls Online. The background I proposed is mountains from Skyrim, but can be easily interpreted as just the geography of Tamriel or Skyrim, and is also still up-to-date with the current major release. I don't see how a logo of a spin-off is any better than mountains from a major game. I mean, even the wordmark itself incorporates Skyrim, but I'm not trying to change too much here. So really what you've just said is pretty hypocritical.

On the other hand, I've never once mentioned the current layout is broken, nor that I disliked it. I just figured it could use more of a formal layout than the current one. I also like the current one, but I think it's best if we can upgrade it, especially to the series' standards and what the community as a whole decides, considering it's the majority's vote. Yes but I see no purpose of a change, as myself & Ebony do not think it looks bad as it is now. As for it being a majority vote, you're correct that things are done in a majority fashion. However this isn't the CT board, there isn't votes here, this is a discussion, & from this discussion, there is no decisive "majority". I do not like the look of the new background at all to be honest, so I oppose the change. If however, a different layout was introduced that I did think looks better then the current layout, I would support it, this however does not in my opinion.

What sort of background are you thinking of? I'm not trying to force this design, I originally was trying to see the idea of a new design/background to fit better for the series, and what ideas we can come to, I was just suggesting an idea. Personally, though, I dislike the current background as it is just a part of the Online logo. I think we need something that fits the entire series rather than that, or some sort of landscape representing Tamriel and the series as a whole. I personally though, strongly would recommend the link colors since they are a lot easier on the eyes for the background and fits the Elder Scrolls.

And no, I don't think that I should at least contribute to doing so as that'll make no difference in the end. This is an open community where anyone can propose ideas, not some sanctum for certain users. I'm sorry if I came off the wrong way to you, but if it's really that hard to understand, I'm proposing my personal opinions that may better the wiki.
