If {{SITENAME}} is not run and hosted by a single person, then it is logical to ask who is responsible for the front-end look and feel of the site. As {{SITENAME}} is a wiki, a number of people collaborated to provide {{SITENAME}}'s current designs. The current theme (mainly a matter of choosing colors and CSS customization) was designed by {{user|PaperScarf}}, including the logo and background. The current home page was created by {{user|Yamichidori1}}.
