Smile New logo on Slackware.com

The logo on the Slackware website has changed. What's going on? Are we there yet? :-)

Oh gawd! I really hated that one.

My favourite is the Slackware64 logo with the binary representation of "64" that was used on the lilo screen of 64bit installs (/boot/slack.bmp). Such a simple yet clever idea.

I like simple B&W text as much as the next guy but this one appeals to me, too.
