Among notable improvements is improved support for high-DPI screens (or zooms above 100% on any screen).

| |
| − | # <span style="color:red">(done)</span> Change the random addon voting: instead of casting votes, just list each one exactly once. Otherwise newly added addons are shown less often, and that's not very fair.
| |
| − | # Write the words OrbiterWiki across the logo (I can upload some of my attempts)
| |
| − | # Change the wiki back to case-insensitive. The development to make it _fully_ case insensitive never materialised obviously, so rather than sticking with the (as I see it) inconvenient _fully_ case sensitive we would be better off using the standard case sensitivity mode (same as Wikipedia)

| − | We have a large number of bot users around from looking into the user list, is there a way to remove them from the user list? I can only ban those directly, who are active, which means we have a large number of sleeping bot accounts in our wiki. --[[User:Urwumpe|Urwumpe]] 12:01, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi! OrbiterWiki is on a new server again, and should be a bit faster now. It's also running the latest software now. Among notable improvements is improved support for high-DPI screens (or zooms above 100% on any screen). In particular, thumbnails will now be sharp as long as the source image is large enough, and MediaWiki Math equations are rendered nicely for such devices.
I've modified the main page slightly; if anyone wishes to trim down the list of links, suggestions are welcome.
Finally, I'm thinking about switching the default font for the entire site; if done, the site will look like this: low DPI high DPI. Speak up now if you have objections!
