The Grand Theft Wiki Skin is, as the name states, the skin of Grand Theft Wiki. Grand Theft Wiki uses the Vector Skin, which is also used on Wikipedia, augmented with artwork and CSS put together by Gboyers.
History
Before Grand Theft Wiki moved to Wikia, the wiki used the Monobook skin. After some time at Wikia, the skin was then changed to Monaco for several years. In 2010, Wikia introduced and made mandatory the unpopular Oasis skin (later renamed just "wikia"), which was one of the many reasons for Grand Theft Wiki moving away from Wikia and becoming self hosted again. Upon leaving Wikia, Grand Theft Wiki used the Vector skin, which is also used on Wikipedia.
Users of Grand Theft Wiki can select which skin to use in their Preferences, although only the Vector skin is actively maintained and supported.
