As a response to this forum, I took the initiative and scour the internet for good background images... with the help of several few individuals of course. All of the files can be located here.

If you want to see how it displays in the wiki, just copy the following and add them in your halopedia.css page:

For this image:
body {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/a/a0/Headertest.jpg) repeat-x left top; 
}

#siteNotice {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/b/b9/Headertest-sn.jpg) repeat-x scroll -231px -95px !important;
}
For this image:
body {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/a/a0/20110825162728!Headertest.jpg) repeat-x left top; 
}

#siteNotice {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/b/b9/20110828142622!Headertest-sn.jpg) repeat-x scroll -231px -95px !important;
}
For this image:
body {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/a/a0/20110825162527!Headertest.jpg) repeat-x left top; 
}

#siteNotice {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/b/b9/20110828142558!Headertest-sn.jpg) repeat-x scroll -231px -95px !important;
}
For this image:
body {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/a/a0/20110825154206!Headertest.jpg) repeat-x left top; 
}

#siteNotice {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/b/b9/20110828142538!Headertest-sn.jpg) repeat-x scroll -231px -95px !important;
}
For this image:
body {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/a/a0/20110716172439!Headertest.jpg) repeat-x left top; 
}

#siteNotice {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/b/b9/20110828142507!Headertest-sn.jpg) repeat-x scroll -231px -95px !important;
}
For this image:
body {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/a/a0/20110716172307!Headertest.jpg) repeat-x left top; 
}

#siteNotice {
   background: #FFFFFF url(images/archive/b/b9/20110828142439!Headertest-sn.jpg) repeat-x scroll -231px -95px !important;
}

Of course, if anyone has a better image, they can upload it to the wiki. Remember to resize the image to 1920 x 193 pixels. :)

So, which one looks nicer to replace the wiki's old background? :D — subtank 23:40, 30 August 2011 (EDT)

The Tempest one works best. The first one didn't show up in my CSS when I tried it and two and three reveal a white outline around the logo. On the topic of the logo, is that changing too? Also, if we'd like to nominate one that isn't on the wiki, do we simply upload it and add a link or is there a different procedure?--Soul reaper 00:44, 31 August 2011 (EDT)
You would need to purge your browser's cache to see the differences. For the logo, I think that would stay... as MC is the mascot for the Halo franchise. If you want to upload another background, just upload it to the wiki. Make sure to resize the image to 1920 x 193 pixels.— subtank 00:49, 31 August 2011 (EDT)
