+I find watermarks quite annoying when trying to read documents, no matter
+how light it is.
+Why can't we just stick with the worldwide standard for wikis? The Mageia
+logo in the top corner, the Mageia favicon, and that's it.
+I would keep the "standard" links bar at the top of the page though. You
+know, the one on the forums and blog and a few other places.
