Anthere-
Just a word there
I wonder if the "you" is general, or if it is "me".
Well, I had no idea how long the logo has been there. Apologies if it was
not possible at the time to discuss these things. But it could be worse:
The first Wikipedia logo was an American flag. Imagine trying to impose
that on every 'pedia :-)

Well, we can't know this for sure without a
poll...
what about setting a poll system ?
Ohhh, voting systems -- I'm all for it :-). However, Jimbo has not yet
authorized voting as a general decision making process, otherwise I'd be
happy to set up a vote on what kind of changes can and cannot be made to
the various international wikis. Note also that there may be cases where
Jimbo has a different opinion than the majority of users; for example,
Jimbo certainly has a strong interest in preserving and strengthening the
Wiki[mp]edia brand, which is somewhat undermined by too large variations
in the look and feel.

very interesting numbers !
perhaps biased for a lack of choice though
I'm all for new skins. Send me a good HTML mock-up and I might even make
one myself. I like Tarquin's proposal for the most part, even though it is
not much different from the standard skin. I do think the bottom links
should not have been removed.
