Thanks.

I really like having the options across the top rather than at the right. It helps other options on the right nav bar move up, and is more like other Wiki sites. Alan 18:22, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

I like them on the top as well. I'm a bit worried they don't stand out enough. Thoughts? Molliewog 21:12, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

I like the change, but it's going to take some time to get used to them. I set my preferences to the new skin and have been using it for about a week. Now that I'm used to it I like it better than having it on the side because it sets it apart from the other items on the right-hand nav bar.Jbparker 19:18, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

I like the change fine as long as they stand out in some way and are not just a string of words at the top of the page as they appear in the sample. Either create them as tabs, as in Wikipedia, or put them in a color bar, or something so that they don't get lost along with the page's text. Bakerbh 19:49, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Driving in the rain today I was annoyed when the wiper controls were not located in the same place as my other car. I like the options across the top because that is where I'm used to finding them. Robert 21:40, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

A minor change which does make the results more readable. Well done. Alan 18:24, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Like the change. Molliewog 21:12, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

I REALLY like this change in the way search results are displayed. Whatever else you do, please do NOT change this one back to the old way.Jbparker 19:18, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

I like this change. All the better to read them, my dear. Bakerbh 19:49, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

The wiper controls drive me nuts because in one car pushing up turns on the wipers and in the other car pushing down turns them on. I liked the Google-ish feeling that the last line of green text conveyed. Keep the green and I think the change is an improvement. Robert 21:40, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Number 3
I prefer the title FamilySearch Research Wiki all in the blue header rather than part in the blue and part below.

 * I agree. It just looks better.    Alan 18:22, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Like the change. Molliewog 21:12, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

I like the change, just because it looks better, not because it changes any functionality.Jbparker 19:18, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Prefer the change and like jbparker said, it didn't change any functionality. dsammy 00:58, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

I like this addition too. Bakerbh 19:49, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

This is an excellent change. Previously, there was not enough visual distinction between the site title (Research Wiki) and the article title. Robert 21:40, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
