The new style in general is something I rather like and overdue, methinks. Thing is, there's older sprites that need to get updated to look more like Wikia's new design sprites for consistency.

That being said, while I think the link color could be fixed in personal CSS and that its more consistent than the old one, accessibility is not something to sweep under the floor. Though the wikitext people were cool, I also think the new CC community icon is a better visual representation of "community" than the old one.
