Thread:Skin talk:Erudite/Ideas for location of meta links ("page", "edit", "discussion" etc.)/reply

This is a big reason why I haven't made Erudite my default. The other problem is that the search function is buried at the bottom of the page.

Ideal for me would be two dropdown menus where the current navigation menu is. The first menu would be located where "Main Page" currently is. The top level option would read "Home" (i.e. main page), and the dropdown would give the options for community portal, current events, recent changes, random page, and help. The second dropdown would be where the community portal is currently located, and would read "Edit" as the top level option. The dropdown would give options to see discussion, source, and history. When the user is on any meta (edit, discussion, history), the top level option becomes "page" and "edit" is substituted in the dropdown for whatever meta option the user is currently displaying. For pages where editing is prohibited, "discussion" would be the top level option when page is being viewed. With the rest of the space in the menu (currently where current events, recent changes, random page, and help reside), put a big search bar.

It would also be nice to be able to swap out the header text for an image such as a logo.
