Is there any kind of documentation about how a Stack Exchange site that has left beta is being customized? Is this done by the people starting the new site, or by Stack Exchange itself?

Well. Those questions appear to be about per/user styling. My question is about changing the default look of a new site.– Oliver WeichholdOct 6, 2014 at 8:38

I don't understand. Who will change then? A single user will be able to change the design for all other users??– Shadow Wizard Love ZeldaOct 6, 2014 at 9:23

AskUbuntu for example looks totally different from SO. How is that done?– Oliver WeichholdOct 6, 2014 at 9:26

@OliverWeichhold Jin, a Stack exchange employee designs it as part of the site's graduation from beta.– psubsee2003Oct 6, 2014 at 9:31

@psubsee2003 Okay, now I get it. All SE site customization is done by SE itself and not by the people starting a new site!?– Oliver WeichholdOct 6, 2014 at 9:34

@OliverWeichhold in the current system, yes. There was a now dead scenerio where someone would actually own their own site and in that case, they would be responsible for the design and many other aspects of the site, but that was killed off several years ago. In fact the last remaining sites that were user owned were finally pulled back under the Stack Exchange umbrella over the last year.– psubsee2003Oct 6, 2014 at 9:38

@psubsee2003 Thank you very much. I suggest you migrate your comment into an answer which I can accept.– Oliver WeichholdOct 6, 2014 at 9:39

@OliverWeichhold it is closed as a duplicate, you cannot add answers to closed questions. I suggest you edit your question to make it more clear what you are asking since your original question was quite unclear. Then it may get reopened, however, I think there is a different duplicate on the design process itself, I just can't find it.– psubsee2003Oct 6, 2014 at 9:42

@psubsee2003 reopened. Did you mean this question? While not 100% dupe, the question itself answers this question here.– Shadow Wizard Love ZeldaOct 6, 2014 at 10:18

@Sha must be. I had thought there was an exact. Dup somewhere but this is the best one on I found meta.stackexchange.com/questions/177407/… but that is more. Maybe this should stay open and get a complete answer– psubsee2003Oct 6, 2014 at 10:21

@psubsee2003 well, your comment above is good enough in my opinion, feel free to turn it into an answer. :-)– Shadow Wizard Love ZeldaOct 6, 2014 at 10:22

@psubsee2003 Confirmed dupe of the question you've mentioned.– Oliver WeichholdOct 6, 2014 at 10:47
