Thanks a lot Jon. This is my first time with MediaWiki & I just assumed that the search bar change in the 1.16 version was on the default skin.

There are 3 pieces to the "new look"

#1 - Vector skin.  Go into LocalSettings.php and change $wgDefaultSkin to
'vector'.
#2 - The collapsible navigation panel are 'CollapsibleLeftNav' from the
Usability Initiative - Info here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:UsabilityInitiative#Vector
#3 - The new editing bar.  That is 'WikiEditor', also from the Usability
Initiative.  Info here:
