I got sick of people complaining about my white-on-black theme, so I finally did something about it. I reset MediaWiki to its default theme:
http://www.skullsecurity.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
I also tried out two other user-made themes that I liked:
http://www.skullsecurity.org/wiki2/index.php/Main_Page
http://www.skullsecurity.org/wiki3/index.php/Main_Page
Thoughts? What's your favourite?
I personally prefer wiki2.
I prefer wiki3 because it's what I'm used to seeing when I go to any kind of wiki.
EDIT: I would be much happier with wiki2 if the font matched that of wiki3.
I liked the black.

Yeah, the black was cool, but light-on-dark is more difficult to read, especially with a lot of text. Also, links and stuff were difficult to read on older monitors.

Agreed @ Wiki3. I like the cookie cutter wiki theme.
Same. Wikipedia still has my heart.
Wiki2 just looks too much like a generic blog-style site.
I really like Wiki2. It's clean, simple, and easy to read :). Wiki 3 doesn't look nearly as good imo -- gradients against non-white backgrounds don't work for me. :-\
So we decided to do things differently and we customized the wiki (http://www.skullsecurity.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page) after the blog (http://www.skullsecurity.org/).
I personally like this look the best, by far. More hackerish, but still readable.
(note: it isn't 100% done)
I like that one a lot. A lot better than the dark blue on black hyperlinks.
External links are still blue on black, which is eww.
As I said, it isn't done yet. :P
Made some more changes, including that one. Still not done, but thoughts?
Yet another update -- made headings/links more yellowy/less greeny. It now matches a lot better with the blog:

It's shift in Windows, and option in OSX :P

My friend tried every control key in OSX, but none of them did a hard refresh. He had to clear his cache every time. (older version of OS X, though, so maybe it didn't understand it?)
