So, the new logo is installed for now.
Hmm, I still see the ancient N-ball-thing. Did you overwrite the old "wiki.jpg"? If not, you have to change the config to use the new file.
If a consensus develops among the speakers of French that it would be better to pursue a more harmonious logo with the world community, that'll be fine. I really don't care about the logo one way or the other.
It might also be pointed out that the new interface ("Cologne Blue") on the new software doesn't even use the logo image! Once the bugs are out it will be made the default, so I really don't see the point of having wars over logos -- which as far as I'm concerned can vary all they wish!
That said, the new French logo has a circular shape and includes the "Wikipedia" name and a localized version of "the free encyclopedia", what more do you need? Is it really vital that there be stretchy pretentious text in the circle? Sheesh.
