[Wikipedia-l] Re: Cologne Blue

[tarquin]

Could someone perhaps design a CologneBlue Mk2, with the following changes:
* serif font
* clearer toolbar
* key links along the top
* include the wikipedia logo

I agree with all the objections to CB, but I also agree with the need 
for a cleaner-looking interface to welcome newcomers.
