Yes, you're right ... I already removed some of the "strong" gradients,
since I've noticed you used lighter ones. It already gets used ... here:

I've started with the (according Florian) urgently needed Skyscaper web
banner - currently in review by the German team, because it will be used
on a German only website. For those who want to know:

Oh, don't worry. No reason for that ;-)

On the wiki page, there is a list of required items - although I think
we don't need all the web banners, at least some variety of the sizes
would be great. And, it would be great if somebody who has also some
experience with web design could have a look at "our" website banner,
maybe even the funding website (a warm place for the piggy-bank?).

So here are some general updates concerning the source file (in the
wiki):
      * Added the Skyscaper web banner
      * Added some layers for the different languages
      * Added the Spanish translation (for the normal web banner)
      * Added a preliminary German translation

Next items that will be changed: The German text will be updated for
both banners. I think I'll be unable to do further graphics today, so
(everyone) feel free ...

So Nik, thanks for your "drive" - I already noticed your "motif" mail,
but I'll need a bit more time for that ... :-)

Cheers,
Christoph
