Hello Sergiu, hello Vincent,
so I'll customize the global.vm in the templates directory, thanks
for your help!
I still would prefer to customize the skin but there's still the problem
with the login page (which indeed is no problem at all when I change
global.vm). Or is this perhaps a farm problem?

  Hello,
 customization of skins is a very fine solution for changing page
 structures, cause it survives updates. In pre XWiki 3.1 we edited
 the global.vm of the colibri skin and our header was shown on all
 pages, including the login. In XWiki 3.1 there is no global.vm
 (in colibri) anymore and the skin customizing doesn't work on the
 login page, so how can we change that page, too?
 
 You can add a new global.vm file under colibri if you want to. It used
 to be there because colibri needed to override the default one found
 under /webapps/xwiki/templates/, but since now Colibri is the default
 skin, it no longer needs to override anything, the other skins (toucan
 and albatross) have to do the override.
