Hi could we create a logo folder inside skins/ folder because commons was deleted. and the logo folder would be easer for people to put there logos in.

You can create such a folder with the usual system/FTP commands. It will be outside of the area, where people can save their files to.

But what I mean is add it to core of mediawiki for everyone. because I would think people saved there logo in the common folder like I do and as it is deleted and no more we should create a logo folder.

That is the reason why the wiki logo (hint: it is an image!) does not belong into the skins folder...

Ok where does it go then.

In the folder images/!

You should put your logo outside of any MediaWiki installation files. Either in the folder of uploaded files (images), the root directory or wherever you like, and just change $wgLogo to point to the URL of the logo.

Oh ok I just kept my logo in the /skins/commons folder.

Honestly: Why are you asking, if you afterwards don't follow the advices anyway? However, it's good to know what I helped for.

What I meant was that I didn't know I should put the logo in the images folder till I asked here. and so I now know where to put it.

No, you do not know where to put it, otherwise you would not leave it inside the skins/common folder after we told you to put it somewhere else. Anyway, I'm out...
