And that, Gcheung28, is one of the bar's two great problems:

It does not mesh with the individual wikis, and sticks out like a sore, swollen, festering thumb.

I understand that you dudes and 'dettes are likely under some sort of pressure to brand, but this type of branding hurts the individual wikis. Not the base idea behind it, mind. I've nothing against a global nav-bar as a general concept. But as others have suggested it needs to be shrunken down a bit, and more importantly it needs to blend with the individual wikis.
