Preview the new logo in use on the site

You can preview the use of the new logo on glossy. Particular areas to notice are the logo at the top of the Plonish site, the logo at the top of the modules (in Desert and Charcoal as well), and the little "course" and "module" icons next to content objects when browsing them in /content/.

Let me know if you see any other blorgys remaining (though I'm aware that things like the generic e-Mailbag images, White Paper, Web tour, Quick reference card, 2-pager, and Rhaptos site logo will need to be updated manually).

I hate to say that I think it looks a little bare as a top corner logo, and worry the little Xs in the small icons might make users think they are for closing things, but perhaps I can convince Joey of some changes to lessen those effects. What do y'all think of the new logo as incorporated into the site?

You've done a really nice job of putting it in various places and in various sizes, but I've got some serious reservations about it. It's just so thin and spidery, and doesn't seem to solve any of what I thought were the perceived problems with blorgy -- vertical orientation of the logo itself, horizontal orientation of the logo-with-name, recognizability at small sizes, etc. I'm particularly concerned about it taking up even *more* vertical space on the site pages. Did we not get a set of options from the ad company? Or were the other choices worse? :}
