Why are we in black all the sudden? Kind of a depressing color, not? --Anjoe 14:13, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Maybe so, but black is also good for visual perception when contrasted with lighter colours, especially since the square is sooo tiinyyyyy.;J BigAdamsky|TALK|EDITS| 14:26, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

I rv'd to previous version and suggest dark green rather than black or fix the whole fragging colour scheme for everything ... The old one was really nice, perhaps even "just perfect?" MX44 11:43, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Also: Why rule out that places like York and Tallin, in a certain light, sometimes can be seen as part of Scandinavia? DS

Feel free to add dark green if able and willing, MX44. I might give it a try too or else I might simply restore the "black" map as I see fit. In any event, you may eventually have to create a personal userbox yourself or perhaps make an alternative template that you may edit at your own leisure. If you wish to copy the current version of this userbox to your user page, you are free to add {{subst:Template:User Norden}} to it. The bottom line is that you get to decide what's in your own name space, not others'. (York and Tallin are about as Scandinavian as Cape Town is Dutch.)

Easy there BigAdamsky. You don't get property-rights on Wikipedia. I am also a user of the template, and I think the current version is far superior to the black one. On top of that I don't think a dark green would make it any nicer, allthough maybe the map itself (not the color scheme) could be bettered. BTW: the template wrongly categorizes users in Category:Scandinavian Wikipedians when it on the other hand has the text and the name "Norden". Instead it should go to Category:Nordic Wikipedians. --Anjoe 18:52, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
