Hi Stroller;
We only treat the default logos specially because we don't know where
the proper path is at install time. It is likely that 1.3 will have a
more elegant solution (probably fixing the templates to use an
absolute path).
The preferred fix for the user templates is to do as follows:
Instead of:
\includegraphics[height=1cm]{logo-colour}
use:
\includegraphics[height=1cm]{/path/to/logo-colour}
I.e. use the absolute path.
Best Wishes,
Chris Travers
