I have to admit, I am both surprised and impressed. I wasn't sure you guys would actually take our feedback seriously, but you've proven me wrong. Kudos to you, Wikia.

I'll be honest. Over the last month or so, I've gotten used to the new nav bar. I've learned to tolerate it, because I was certain nothing better was coming. And then? You guys do this.

It's not a perfect solution, no. I'm still going to have that Wikia logo following me around like a stray puppy, and the search bar's still gonna be looming like a Vegas lone-shark's hired muscle. BUT! It will at least make attempts to blend in. It'll be a little more circumspect, and at least attempt to blend in with the rest of the page.

So, it's not exactly what I wanted, but it is a compromise. I can live with that, if it works as well live as it seems to in those photos.
