Image border missing in Timeless skin
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Images using the code [[File:Flag of Japan.svg|30px|border]] are expected to have a 1px grey border.
But this border is missing in the Timeless skin.

Demo: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Sandbox&oldid=817291472&useskin=timeless
Expected: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Sandbox&oldid=817291472&useskin=vector

Indeed, it is missing the following rule from mediawiki.skinning/content.css (module mediawiki.skinning.interface):

img.thumbborder {
	border: 1px solid #eaecf0;
}

@Od1n I will be adding this task on google code-in site :)

@Eugene233: Would you mentor this in Google-Code-in-2017 or why was the tag added? :)

I just noticed this border's color is varying across the skins…

I tried to determine the proper color for Timeless, without success.

Thanks :) @grey-bright variable is #eee. It's a bit too light in my opinion. The next one, @grey, is #ccc, which in turn is a bit too dark. Something between the two would have been optimal.

This being said, I'd bend for @grey because we need the contrast, and it is the value used for other borders. Also note it is closer to the Minerva skin's value.

@grey-bright is what is used for image borders in thumbs. It should be the same. Whether or not the value is too light in general is a separate issue; you are welcome to file a task about that as well.

I made the patch, but the Gerrit Patch Uploader currently fails to submit it (and there is no error message).

Gerrit is a PITA to use without this tool, so for now I'll just post the patch below. If someone wants to submit it right now, please do :)
