  On a final note... The non-javascript photo tour link is dead and the 
branch doesn't seem to include this so if users have javascript disabled
and try to do the photo tour from one installed on a loco site they are 
going to 404. The simple way to fix this is to edit the index.html 
within your /en/ folder and change
<a href="/ubuntu/take-the-tour-gallery">  to
<a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/take-the-tour-gallery">
