    Initial criticism was to keep the sections divided by color, so I added an alternative that did that.

    Edit: Should have let people vote for multiple items, but idk how to fix that . . .

    If you edit the post, I'm pretty sure there's an option to adjust it.

    I voted for the first alternative because I'm not a fan of the whole table within a table look. If the colors were better, I may lean toward the other one.

    I suggested the idea of picking different colors but not ones that would cause an aneurysm. Something more muted for the headers, with a matching very light hue for the background of that pane. I prefer the unified table to the current look but I don't like the lack of visual differentiation between the sections on what you call "alt 1."

    Closing poll for now so you can edit the alt2 to do what you were suggesting. Once that's done, you can reinstate the poll since you're mod!

    Leave it open. Edit: Nvm, reopened.

    My idea for three colors: http://bg-wiki.com/bg/User:Slycer/MainAlt#BG_Alt_2

    Refer to Yugl's link for "Alt 1"

    This is me unofficially changing my vote to #2, since I can't do it in the poll itself.

    Don't have to use those colors specifically, I was just going for something more muted. Should note that the current BG Wiki main page is basically just a mimic of Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page).
