Nice!

http://scikits-image.org/docs/dev/

Looks great. I just noticed that the logo on that page (and other pages) always links to the currently open page, instead of always to http://scikits-image.org. Is that intended?

For me, the logo links to the index page of the docs. Is this what you meant by "currently open page" or is it actually behaving differently?

On http://scikits-image.org/docs/dev/ it points to http://scikits-image.org/docs/dev/.
On http://scikits-image.org/ it points to http://scikits-image.org/.
On http://scikits-image.org/docs/ it points to http://scikits-image.org/docs/.
On http://scikits-image.org/docs/0.3/ it points to http://scikits-image.org/docs/0.3/.

This is unusual, and because there are no links to go higher up the tree (say from docs/0.3/ to docs/, or from docs/ to the homepage) it makes the site hard to navigate.

I guess it is more common---design-wise---for the logo to link to the home page, but I think going to the main page of the docs is a more common operation (for me, at least). This is also what the numpy documentation does. BUT, the numpy docs also has a link history at the very top, which you can follow to get back to scipy.org. Maybe we should add a homepage link in the sidebar?

That would be useful.
