Those are examples of customized Monaco skins from wikis. Details can be found at Help:Customizing Monaco.
To borrow a technique from one of these wikis, copy the relevant section of CSS from their style sheet into yours and adjust as necessary. While code may be freely borrowed, please do not use images from other wikis for background, bullets or other graphic elements unless you have discussed it with the designers -- substitute your own images into the code instead. The point of customization is to look different from other wikis, and it is impolite to borrow another wiki's signature design without permission.

Avatar Wiki (The Last Airbender)[edit source]

An orange theme is used for articles relating to the original series, and a theme of blacks and whites is used for fanon and fan fiction articles.
