I agree with the general thoughts around these last observations.

The gui you are proposing is a little too black starting from the sidebar logo 
and the font a little small.
Probably is that we like blood here but not the black color..... (if not in 
night mode)

Also most of us are probably affectionated to the stylished standard html gui 
and what
I mean with this are all the classic a and a:visited colors, the classic 
browser font, _self on links etc
Sometimes appears more friendly and "honest" to the user leaving or adopting 
these stylish standards.
The server pictures are also just a little geeky meaningful stuff.

Possible sidebar logo solution: adopt the foreground color of the main 
versioned logo (if you like that sidebar logo: it is however a repetition..); 
fonts: under a certain screen size you can adopt a vw sized font, and over a 
certain screen size a general px sized font, it is a trick commonly used by me 
in my web apps.
