| Hi everyone,
| | OH SHIT!!! |
| | | OH SHIT!!! |
| A while ago, one of you [http://www.halopedian.com/Forum:Website_Background_change suggested a new background change] for the wiki, as we've had our current one for quite a while. Then some of you [http://www.halopedian.com/Forum:Wiki_background_update submitted] several new pictures which we could use. Now as a community, we'd like to hear your final say on which one you'd like best to see as the new background. Here is the complete list of submitted backgrounds:

| *No. 4 (I know I've said it before, but eh), as per Spartan331 and the fact that sitenotice and other interface stuff doesn't blend in as well (by default) with no. 18 as it does with no. 4, which makes no. 4 easier to work with on interface issues and looks, imo, just as good :). - [[File:Major.png|20px]] [[User:Nicmavr|<span style="color:DarkGoldenrod; font-weight:bold; font-family:Arial">Nìcmávr</span>]] <sup><span style="color:DarkGoldenrod">(</span>[[User Talk:Nicmavr|<span style="color:DarkGoldenrod; font-weight:bold">Tálk</span>]]<span style="color:DarkGoldenrod">)</span></sup> 10:38, 16 October 2011 (EDT)

| *Here goes my vote for #4. '''Note to others'''; do note that this is for general appearance. When a Halo title is set to come out in two weeks time, the wiki (and the decoration/launch-celebrator team who works behind the scenes improving the wiki's appearance) will try its best to create a theme to celebrate the launch of that title. A perfect example would be the launch of [[Halo: Reach]], which you all can see in [[:File:050710.png|this image]]. So, all of these images will be stored/archived for future use and would not lost in time. :) — <span style="font-size:16px; font-family:OrbitronMedium;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 10:40, 16 October 2011 (EDT)

| *No. 4 is calming and beautiful while still showing (relatively) small Forerunner constructs and a Halo.

| *My favourite options would be option #4 and #20. But considering the fact that I can only choose one. I'll choose #4 because it features a beautiful and expansive view of a Halo installation.

| *No. 4 - It's got some of the most iconic scenery in the ''Halo'' series and is very balanced as an image in terms of coloration and details; there's no unnecessary or distracting clutter like in some of the other images. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 15:43, 16 October 2011 (EDT)

| *I wish this could be a regular thing, that we could change the background every few weeks or so. Or perhaps randomise it? It's difficult to choose just one when they're all excellent. If I had to, though, I would vote either for 18 or for 20, 18 because it's a good fit for the direction Halo is moving forward, and 20 because it has a mixture of iconic features, ie; the Halo itself, and a Covenant ship. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 17:00, 16 October 2011 (EDT)

| | |
| * '''No. 4''' After previewing all 20 of the images here, my choice is 4 and the reason why is although the other images show a great deal of fantastic moments in the trilogy, or highlight some of our favorite things within the universe, the problem is the the color palate every image has a dark tone and unfortunately a lot of images end up only showing you either a background of stars, an odd random object that doesn't fit, or nothing at all until you look at the side. 4 just fits, nice tone and variety of colors and you get the halo ring right in the middle. The colors are light which fits with the website and it just overall gives you something Halo has always done, which is these epic beautiful grand vistas that just make you stop for a second and stare in awe. Considering this is the 10th anniversary of the halo franchise, which in ten years has endured a great deal from the praise, popularity, community and success, to the constant bashing, unbelievable amounts of hatred and unwavering attempts to destroy this great franchise by negative opinion. For me personally the image I chose, it encapsulates that moment we all saw ten years ago, the art, the endurance and the greatness of this game. — [[User talk:Durandal-217|Durandal-217]] 18:35, 16 October 2011 (EDT)

| *I like number 5 best, it has Forerunner stuff, a great skybox, the Halo, and fog. Also, I think it would give a nice color change from the tan coloration on right now, as well as some contrast with the whiteness of the page, as well as having more depth than most others in here. Will we replace the Halopedia logo as well? I'd like to offer some ideas for it as well.[[User talk:Xtermin8R645|Xtermin8R645]] 19:08, 16 October 2011 (EDT)

| *My vote is for number 20. It captures the feeling of Halo, isn't too busy, looks beautiful when implemented, repeats well and works with Halo's color scheme.

| Most of the votes seem to be going to 4, 18 and 20. Can we see previews for all those? I like 20 the best, but I just don't think it'll look good with the rest of the background... If it does I'm definitely changing my vote.

| I think that we should use 5 or 6 until Halo 4 comes out, and then we switch to that. Honestly though, most of them are all awesome! Isn't there some way that another alternative skin could be generated that switched between different skins on every page load, or each time that the site is approached from a new caché, better yet. --<big>[[User:Pikapi|''<font color="teal">Chris</font>]]''</big> [[User_talk:Pikapi|<font color="blue">''talk''</font>]] 21:45, 18 October 2011 (EDT)

| '''Note''', to those that brought up the logo, no, this vote does not apply to changing the logo, we'll be doing that separately.

| *7 or 20 definitely. 7 gives a spectacular view of [[the Ark]] and [[Installation 04B]] which are two examples of [[Forerunner]] architecture, but it would only go well with a picture of [[John-117]] in a MJLONIR Mark VI. 20, however, is a concept art which gives it a feel that a screenshot can't have. Plus, it is a beautiful view of space and a Halo ring, which reminds everyone of what the ''Halo'' franchise was built upon and gave it it's success, and it would look great with a picture of a [[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]] version of the Chief.
