Please can we have a normal link to the wiki

The way that the wiki opens up from the Canonfire! homepage is really annoying.

While it is technically very clever for it to arrive on a floating layer above the window, this reduces the available screen space and forces you to use the scroll bar a lot more than if you open the wiki in a full size browser window.

Please could we have a normal link to the wiki instead?

Here you go.

I've just put a link to the recent changes page in my personal bookmarks so that I can get to it whenever I want.

You're right that a link on the front page would be convenient. I never use the floating layer at all, since I think it's annoying.

Thanks Rasgon. I can get to the wiki (I usually get their via Google anyway). But occasionally, I have surfed over from the page and the layer thing is an anti-feature.

I have to agree with you, I don't really like the layering thing. Then again at this point I have it saved as a favorite so its sort of a non-issue.
